ALL ABOARD AMETHYST

Crazy here.  The bus departs for Sew Expo in just seven short days.  Weeks ago Janet posted some fabulous berries on her blog, Art Journey.  Magnificent with color.  I thought that I needed to see wool looking like that.  Dye pots on simmer today so gave it a try.  Came close enough to please me.  Shouldn't I do some additional shades?   All of our hand dyed woolens including the new Amethysts, will be aboard when we head north for Puyallup.  If you are lucky enough to attend this robust show, come see us in all of our new colors...and the old too of course.
second try - like.

  1. Wow Reets! That is so cool that you captured this color!
    This is the Beautybush - the actual name of the plant!

    I can't wait to see these wools in Puyallup! Hopefully I have first dibs - ha!
    Thanks!
