Indigo (part 1)

As you know I cancelled the Maine Event for lack of interest this year. My friend Judith said we should get together and spend "that Saturday" playing in an indigo vet. Another friend came up from Boston and we dipped the day away. Loads of fun was had by everyone.

Silk chiffon that started hot pink, yellow, purple, blue and any other garrish colors you can think of

Kind of like this

Two pieces of really ugly fabric that came out better after shibori. 

Another old experiment that needed help.

This was from a blog I did on silk screens. I just dipped it whole (no folds) into the indigo.
