...and the next day...
...by then even the birds stared...

Dyeing reloaded
As you may have noticed, there hasn´t been much
dyeing here for a while...
Didn´t feel like it, with that scaff*** hassle...
But now I´ve been busy for days, mostly with
stuff from the kitchen to start with...
Yesterday in the mail: some previously unexplored
substances I ordered, to experiment with till
dyestuffs can be found outside again...
Fabrics waiting in soymilk...
Just started, and there already are pinks, again.
Can´t help it, it seems...
As you might have noticed, too, the link to my
Bigcartel shop has vanished from the sidebar.
For a while I thought I might prefer to offer
fabrics and my textile/mixed-media work separately
- but then didn´t see the point of it any more
(and can´t effort two shops anyways...).
So - the new fabrics will be on Etsy, too.
Several packs/selections of beige/browns (with
clamp marks and such) and with a little pink,
and a soft yellows selection will be ready
first and go into the shop in a couple of days...

Writing on the wall...
Here´s a little fabric-and-paper quilt thing I made.
It certainly is pleasant to stitch through paper -
by machine as well as by hand...
P.S. Blue sky today...

Rainy weather and a winner
I´ve been thinking of black and white photography
lately, and how I´d like to do it again - well, neither
time machine nor computer machinations needed for
that today...
Booo...
And the pincushion goes to:
Thanks, everyone...

Good intentions or: a Give-away
I´ve been in a stuffing mood...
Do you remember my "therapeutic" pincushions
of last year?
Here´s a new version: a "good intention" pincushion.
I made 4 different ones - 3 are in the shop -
and one I offer as a give-away...
The winner´ll get this pincushion, together with
a small bundle of hand dyed fabrics - so, if you´d
like to have it, please leave a comment here till
Monday (Jan. 23), sharing a good intention or two...

Almost...
Hello to the new year.
Feels like March though. Almost.
Still possible, I heard on the radio, for a
"last minute winter" to come.
Even for me, a capricorn, a first minute spring
seems preferable to a bargain winter...
