there are so many leaves around that i couldn't resist a bit of dyeing this week. click on image for close-ups.

| a ready made mask...some thought it looked like an owl |
 |
| i like that just the leaf outline was picked up |
 |
| i put some scrim between the fabric bundle. the scrim picks up the color so well. |
 |
| these will take a while to be completely dry. i'm trying to be patient. |
and the beginnings of an experiment with bits of cloth and lace stitched to used
color catcher sheets...more on this sometime soon.

They turned out well Deanna. If you have leaves why not dye them right? Must be a good time for autumn leaves for you over there. Can't wait to see what that last batch turn out like!
Boy the scrim really does pick up the color! Great results here. I'm wondering what 'color catcher sheets' are?
HOOOO HOOOOOO!
...and great tip on the scrim, shall give that a try one of these days, thank you.
Hoo Hoo, i thought to myself "deanna has made an owl". A very wise old owl too. clever!
Definitely an owl, complete with beak!
I love watching this process through your posts.
beautiful natural dyeing Deanna!
Can't wait to see what you do with your color catcher sheets.
xo
