Dyeing to Design Class...

I saved some of the black gradations I dyed last week for the class.

I decided to try something abstract this time:

It was therapy sewing just to cut the fabric into strips and

piece it back together again...

I cut the strip set into skinny strips...

I pulled out a design board:

I used the two darkest gradations for the background...

I see trees...

I like the way it looks at an angle.

 Here are the 2 studies I did with the black gradations:

I tend to work with vibrant colors in most of my textiles.

I learned a lot from removing colors from the equation and 

working with only shades of black.

Next is Lesson 2.....Dyeing the Color Wheel
