and moons ~ og måner
This is the latest experiment - Ecodyeing again. This time in the local crafting gulid under the tutelage of a more experienced dyer. This is the outset. The pre-mordante fabric was covered with a dye blanket (madder) and firmly rolled onto a rolled-up tovel and steamed for 1½ hours. The result was good, but not fanstastic, photo will follow.
(ahorn=acer, tørstetræ=frangula, jordbær=strawberry, eg=oak, vedbend=ivy)
Der kommer helt sikkert flere PlantePrint eksperimenter i den kommende tid. Blandt andet skal jeg teste, om jeg kan få bregner til at give den smukke lysegrønne, som den gav på vores medløbere.
That moon photo fills me with awe.
SvarSletA beautiful and intriguing Selection - and I look forward to seeing more of your dying experiment.
Thank you, I like that moon shot too, and it was pure luck while waiting for the bus.
SletI have never seen a 'white" oreo, the moon is beautiful. I recognise some of those leaves, fig, eucalyptus, artichoke and ivy, but don't know the others. I hope the dyeing goes well.
SvarSletWe have many different oreos rigth now. I must remember to show them on Sundays to come. Well spotted, I'm sure you know strawberries (jordbær) as well.
SletThank you, better, yes. But I'm still not totally happy. More experimenting to come, hopefully and if we have no frost in the coming week.
SvarSletAnd if you look now - Wednesday morning - this reply stands strangely unattached with no comment to reply to.
SletThis is because since I replied to Mimi's comment, saying: "What a beautiful moon photo! May the dyes work out better in this way." Blogger in its wisdom has decided, that said comment is spam.
I'll leave it in spam-prison for yet a while. I hope Blogger will learn, as I notify them ever single time thy do this.
