Over Dyed Quilt
While participating in Jane Dunnewold's Art Cloth Mastery program we learned about the wonder and joys of over dyeing fabric. Over dyeing is as it sounds. Dye a fabric one color, and then after processing and a washing, dye it another color. There are many joyous surprises. I took half of all of my sample strips and made blocks for a quilt. It was only big enough for a large wall hanging, or baby quilt. I want a bed quilt. More fabric needed to be made. In my opinion, this border wasn't enough, visually, or size wise. So more pieces were dyed, And over dyed. I will be cutting these 9"x WOF strips into blocks, and hoping I have enough. I should have done the math first, but I like living on the edge of uncertainty. I can always dye more!
