my sister and her husband are here from NC
they've been having a great visit with Mom
plus giving me some much needed rest
today I am staying home
all day
it's a little dreary
a little cool
the perfect day for playing in the dye pots
I have a large collection of Cushing dyes and recipes
I enjoy Karen's recipes
for their simplicity and gorgeous colors
this link will take you to Karen's etsy shop
I can highly recommend her little books
full of dye recipes and wonderful information
in the past I have used these recipes so many times
that wool has been hooked and I sorely miss it in my stash
so many perfect backgrounds here
the recipes are simple
marbleizing is a great way to get started "dyeing"
I also have her Lavender book
which also includes background recipes
*****
I have tons of dye books and recipes
right now I'm in the mood for softer shades
subtle variations
I'm in no way connected with Karen
simply sharing some information
hoping to encourage others to dye some wool
it will make your work unique
I recently purchased some of her marbled wool
from her esty shop a ~ it's heavenly
quite inspiring too!
Wishing you all a wonderful day
