Organic plant dyed cotton

I’ve been experimenting with plant dying and loving it!  All these and more will be up in my etsy store soon.  I’m also looking forward to sharing some new techniques with you all.  I recently was gifted with some woad which is really really exciting for me!  To dye with it you have to change the chemical structure of the dye.  I’m going to be doing this with a urine bath.  This is an ancient method, going back at least centuries.  The resulting blue is lightfast, durable and beautiful.

I’m also starting on some new linocut prints, and hopefully in a week or two I will finally get to do a print run again for the first time in over a year!  You can find some of my work here and here.
