Today we had Wendy Scott, who is a fantastic Textiles teacher, come to the guild to do fabric dyeing with a small group of us. It was an awesome day.

We used the 3 primary colours to mix the colours we wanted and poured it over our fabric. A total of 3 mtrs was dyed.

Once home I still had to rinse a lot of my fabric out. It's so much fun when you undo all the tying and rubber bands to reveal the design on the fabric.

On the line.... waiting, waiting....
My beautiful finished creations. Not one of them is the same design.....

Very nice. One-of-a-kind fabric. It sounds like you had some fun and got some great fabric out of your class.
Looks like fun, you've wanted to do that for a long time. Well done Sis.
