Dyer Sailing Dinghy in very nice condition. All original bronze hardware, nice crisp sail, and Shaw and Tenney oars. Would make a very fun boat to learn to sail on or use as a dinghy.
this is a really old picture. I was searching for pictures of my dog and found this. I had to upload to flickr.
I started sewing and trying different things before the cotton was dyed.. blogged: viltalakim.com/blog/2011/08/viltalakim-shibori/
Ha! I am a microbiology nerd. I thought it looked kind of like we were lining up the slides after an excruciating (sp?) torture session, and the blood was blue. Nice, eh? Ah, the nerdiness...
Hand dyers Missy Burns (Wool in the Woods), Cheryl Potter (Cherry Tree Hill) and Jerry (Ivy Brambles) with Cyndi (The Yarn and Fiber Company) in September 2007 at her store in Windham, New Hampshire.
This is out back, where the dyes are mixed and - I'm guessing as I missed this part - the waxed cloths are given a hot bath to melt the wax once they dry.
Dyer Indiana's 1988 Pierce Arrow inside quarters on the south side of town. It has a twin on the north side of town.
An etsy seller, Dye! Diana! Dye! ( www.dyedianadye.etsy.com ) bought these silver earrings from me and sent me a photo to show me how well they coordinate with one of her shirts.
I thought that was so thoughtful of her!
I die cut some flower shapes from an old sheet and then dipped them in the water I used to clean my brushes. This coloured them in subtle shades.
I then scrunched them into small balls and put them into an old chocolate container to dry naturally.
I also dyed some strips of cloth and ribbon at the same time
On a whimsy, I tried dying some samples of wool yarn. The dye bath at right is made of red onion skins and the other two are unsweetened Kool-Aid. I didn't realize I had to microwave the Kool-Aid dye baths to set them, but that's pretty easy to do next time, and the dye seemed to take really well without the additional heat. I had bright orange fingers all day from putting them into the fruity-smelling dye bath.
I went out and bought more Kool-Aid.
