Sorry for the crappy lighting but I just redid the bottom which makes the whole piece so much more blue. Since I only had one little part to do I didn't use soda ash and only dyed the part I needed. I decided to just put the fabric in a cup with the dye instead of a bag.
When I grabbed it out it had sucked up all of the dye so a lot of the surrounding purple got more blue as well. But this is now my favorite piece of fabric!
I also forgot to mention in my last post that I've pulled Swirling Peacock out of my UFO pile. Unfortunately everything has become a UFO since starting Paradise but that will change when it's finished. I pulled it out so I can have a project on the go and it's smallish. Technically my Halloween pieces are smaller but I like working with the kreinik and love the fabric. But I think Halloween Banners will be rotating with it. I have green and yellow left so if you have one you like better let me know!
Ciao for now thanks for all the comments you guys leave!
Beautiful, Heather :-)

ReplyDeleteI vote yellow but maybe you're tired of it after Paradise haha. :D Stitch what you love and love what you stitch!
Oh wow gorgeous! Oh I can't wait to watch those Halloween pieces grow again. I almost forgot about them.
