Raise your virtual hand if you were a bit surprised by the snowfall over the weekend. Lots of things were cancelled here on the East Coast but the pumpkins got carved and some cloth was dyed.
Turmeric took the dye beautifully. It is a fugitive dye so I may lay it out in the sun with some stones on it. The idea is that the stones will act as a resist to the turmeric-colored cloth. We'll see.
I was quite happy with the eco prints (top photo). These were done on mordanted cloth and I want to try them with untreated cloth. Can you imagine a science class or nature center class making eco prints? Or you in your kitchen with (or without) your kids or grandkids? Oh my! Fingers crossed :)
