Immersion Dyeing

Spring has finally sprung here in central Iowa!  Rumor has it it's going to make it into the 60's today.  Starting next week, after I hang my upcoming solo show this coming Sunday, I will be hitting the dye pots and hard.  Also on the docet is the natural dye garden, I'm planting native dye plants, and if all goes well madder root in a livestock barrel to prevent it from overtaking the lawn.  Stay tuned for photos, video, and more.

Indigo

The indigo vats are looking oh so wonderful!  The indigo in the above photo was on it's way to reduction and now has fully reduced.  So part of today's plans are to dye some fabrics with indigo. 

My live streaming capabilities are on hold at the moment so I will video tape my dyeing session and place it over at the Natural Surface in the Indigo Dyeing Group!  If your not subscribed to The Natural Surface then come on over and join the fun, membership is $29.95 a year.
