inspired by india flint
yesterday, i got to play with natural dyes all day. i set up 5 traditional natural dye vats: 2 black walnut, madder, tumeric and osage orange. inspired by india flint, i tore up an old linen tablecloth and used this cloth to experiment with her direct application techniques. i arranged leaves, onion skins and bloodroot pieces on the squares of wet linen, then folded and bound and into the dyepots. i am very pleased with the result. opening these little bundles was like opening cloth gifts!
