Snakes and ladders

More from Mother

The tie lines with cochineal and plants...snakes and ladders revisited...can't seem to get enough of those euc buds. Love the look on top of geranium...last a simply simple euc leaf...so clear and generous...happy holidays all...

Spring frenzy

My life is full of processes, colour, pollen, hummingbirds, eucalyptus, and fibers....so many things Ilove doing ,hard to sit still...carpe diem!!,

Abundance!!!

this is my past week's adventure, with a little gardening and seedling transplanting on the side....dyed with madder and cochineal , the top photo, finished a spring iris coloured blanket, with brushed mohair and mushroom dyed warp, cooking up some madder warp for the next blanket and dyeing some lamb's wool that is old but still looks good....local lamb which is about fifteen years old, also dyed some in a vat with lac/madder combo, came out a lavender pink shade...so spring is definitely showing itself and the greens and pink blossoms are breathtaking.now for more dyeing and some eco printing.  New plants to try for eco printing....and more to be learnt....must keep notes, apparently I have no goal of consistency in my work, working on a "wing and a prayer" seems ot be my natural course, of course, I do jot down notes in my journal but don't seem to read them when I am working,!! Lol. It does make for a lot of variety and endless lessons.....
