Hand dyed fabric and two flowers

For my Flowergarden I did these two flowers and
have now 53 flowers and some hexies done.
About 100 flowers will be needed, haven't decided yet on how large it will be.


Then I made
 these butterflies and flowers to put on a miniquilt.
I like making little embellishments for quilts


I bought this
Friendship Triangles book by Edyta Sitar the other day,
it is a beautiful book and it has step-by-step technique for
creating half-square triangles among other things.

Have been dyeing
some fabric for my  Dear Jane Quilt



"Happiness is to be found along the way,
 not at the end of the road, for then the journey is over and it is too late.
Today, this hour, this minute is the day, the hour, the minute for each of us
to sense the fact that life is good, with all of its trials and troubles,
and perhaps more interesting because of them."

Take care and enjoy what ever you are doing.

dyeing



I have been dyeing and here are some pictures I like to share with you.

This is sunset.

This one I can use as a sky on a bad day.



I have also been doing some stenciling, using freezerpaper, it is really fun.
Can be used as a front of a book cover.

On this one I painted over bobble plastic.

I also dyed some more fabric for my DJ.  Only 39 blocks and 7 triangles done, still a long way to go.

Thank you all for stopping by and happy quilting and dyeing.

Hand dyed fabric


I have so much hand dyed fabric and I was thinking of doing "Baby Dear Jane". I have admired Dear Jane quilt for many years and bought the disk and the book some years ago. Now is the time to start. I signed up for Rainbow Jane at the twiddletails store, but it does not start until october, I can't wait that long, so I decided to use my hand dyed and have already done my first one. Will post a photo of it to morrow.
