Experimenting with Shibori Indigo Dyeing.....

5th February 2019

Had a great weekend experimenting and producing some interesting results.......

....baked bean tin bottom clamped on folded fabric...

.....table floor protectors clamped.....

....scrunch and wrap with elastic bands....

.....cord placed in the centre, folded and wrapped then cord is pulled tight....

...fabulous effect....

....folded and clamped with lolly sticks...

....buttons secured with elastic bands.....

....folded and secured with bands....

....this is a bag....

.....all the designs except the last two are on cotton tea towels which I hope to sell, a couple of the designs would make a good wall hanging.

The indigo dye kit was bought from Art Van Go and is very easy to use.
