Well these are the results of a fun day of felt dyeing and I am really happy with the amazing bright and beautiful colours achieved with the wool. Wool really seems to take up colour very well.
After leaving all the bags of dye and fabric overnight, we rinsed all the peices out by hand.
This part is really exciting as you discover how each one has developed. I found that many of the colours that I thought were going to be blues, turned out an amazing range of greens.
Here are the felts drying in the shade. The colours seem to change in the sunlight.
Some of the softer colours.
Mauves and reds,
yummy greens and lemony yellows,
Im so keen to get started creating lovely things for my little Bella with all these lovely felts. Thankyou
Natima for such a fun day. I am lucky to have such a kind and creative mum in law.
Gorgeous colour wool. I spotted some of mine on the rack!

ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what lovely things Bella is going to get.
