I am enrolled in Melody Johnson's
This week I sorted through my hand dyes:
These are a few that might work for this class.
We won't be using wild hand dyes at first...
We will use calmer hand dyes like these:
I do notice that the majority of my hand dyes
read as medium values.......hmmm.
I need each color to have values from very light
to very dark......like this run of pink hand dyes.
I spent Tuesday dyeing primary and secondary
colors on the color wheel......48 fat quarters.
Today I washed and dried them.
Now I am ready to fuse.....ALL of them!
Melody prefers
Pellon Wonder-Under 805 fusible web
This press will make short work of all that fusing!
This press has 7 times the pressing surface
of a regular iron.........wish me luck!
I will post my homework
as I complete it each week.
Every Friday Melody posts a
new homework assignment.

I'm in the class too, we were also in a Baron class together as well, perhaps Dyeing to Design. Your fabrics are wow! My studio looks like a bomb went off with today's move to a Composition!!!! I'll be checking back to see your progress.
