Yesterday I helped some members of one of the bees I belong to learn how to dye fabric. Here they are madly mixing up dyes so we can get started.

Robin was nice enough to let us make a mess in her yard!
Surprisingly enough they were very neat. Robin and Sara both had white on with very little dye on their clothing.
All in all it was a very nice day. They want to do it again now that they know there are limitless possibilities!
Wonderful results ladies!

yummy colours! I was intimidated by dyeing until I did it and realized it isn't difficult, just a bit messy.
ReplyDeleteWow that looks like fun, with such wonderful results.
ReplyDeleteI had a wonderful time and am very happy with my results. Thank you Kelly! You are a generous, creative and talented teacher.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like such a fun and fabulous day. I love the photos of the fabrics laying on the grass throughout the garden, it looks like a big garden quilt!! I was impressed that people dressed in white, I would have have dye everywhere!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a lot of fun. Pretty fabric on the grass drying.
ReplyDeleteI'm so impressed, Kelly!! What a fun day. I've never dyed fabric except for back in the day when we all put a packet of tan Rit in our machines to turn every piece of fabric dreary and "antiqued"....at least that's what I did!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors! I love dyeing- Tons of fun but messy! What are you going to make?
ReplyDeleteGreat colors! Looks like a lot of fun! :)

Yummy, what great eye candy! Makes me itch to do some dyeing again.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful colors! I'm glad everyone had fun . . . I want to dye again, and don't know if the weather will cooperate with me. Now your friends are in love with dyeing too, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteI've done that with friends too. It's quite the process. I liked being educated about how to dye fabric, but I didn't care for the process to accomplish it. So glad we can do what suits, or doesn't suit, our fancies.
ReplyDeleteOooh this looks like fun, and what gorgeous results!! xo
ReplyDeletehow fun fun!!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to try this someday. The fabric pieces turned out great !
oh these fabrics are beautiful, how I would love to make a quilt with just what I see on the lawn,
ReplyDeletebeautiful colors, great results. This is something I need to try someday.
