I spent the morning at my monthly ASG meeting, where I presented the program for the day on fabric dyeing.  I’ve been experimenting with this craft for a number of years now and always find it a rewarding, if not always predictable, art form.  Here are a few of the points I made at today’s meeting:

To celebrate hand dyed fabrics and share a bit of the love I am giving away a set of 12 pieces of hand dyed 100% cotton fabric, 4” x 6” in size (pictured above), just right for small crafting projects, like fabric postcards and artist trading cards or scrapbooking.  All 12 of these colors were dyed using only three primary colors.  Here is a fantastic site where you can find information on mixing dozens of colors from only a few basic dye powders.  Wow. 

Leave a comment on this post before Monday morning (February 21st, 6 a.m. EST) and I will select one name as the winner.

Now go get your hands dirty.
