For those of you who think l have forgotten, l am also an Artist... Here are some results of my last eco-dyeing! Windfalls from the garden; eucalyptus leaves; orange peel and a copper pipe.
This is a large piece of the old silk l bought from the charity shop... It dyes beautifully.
Then, l dyed an old, white, cotton sheet with the same windfall flowers etc. but not the copper pipe, although the copper pipe bundle was in the same pressure cooker load. It is a very subtle cloth but l really love it. There is more blue in it than appears on this image.

Today's Baby "Messy and Sensory" class was so much fun; this little lady was the perfect client! Ha. She didn't wait for the others... she just dived straight in. She loved it. What is it?...Angel Delight. She really tested it and experimented with it to the full. It was delightful to watch. This is what messy play should be all about, which is why people come here and don't do it it at home! Ha! Also, l love messy play.
But, two seconds later... water and glitter helped to help her smile again!
Just look at that grin! Ha!
Then they went home......Ha!
Will show the other images tomorrow! Night all. xx :)
