Dye Session 2 Process


For dye session 2, I tried a few different shibori techniques. The one in the middle is wrapped around ping pong balls.



I chose to use rojo powder and turmeric. After dye session 1, I realized that I was using too much water. So, this time I used a lot less water and more pigment. I put the ping pong and unfolded fabrics in the rojo and the triangle clip fabric in the turmeric. I really liked the result of mixing the dyes last session so this time I did one half and half but I think it turned out much better this time. 

Here are all four of my fabrics wet on the clothesline. My favorite is the one on the far right which is the result of the triangle fold and clothes pins. I can't wait for them to dry so I can iron them and take pictures of the final result.
