This isn’t a sample, this is just a yard of blue. I thought it would make a pretty sky for a landscape quilt. My backyard vat is getting tired, it could use more indigo. Until I add more, I’m experimenting with the different shades of blue I can come up with. It’s been so dark, navy has been my only option.
This is so pretty, isn’t it? Am I allowed to say that about my own stuff? hmm…Yes, I am. I love it.
And this guy, wooooo! Fun. I like the stitched pieces A LOT. But they do take time.
Oh yeah, had to do this. It’s the PG version of my thought process when things are going well, It’s lighter than the others because a stitch popped and I didn’t want to lose any letters so I stopped dipping it into the indigo early. The more times you dip fabric into an indigo vat, the darker the fabric gets.
These guys took two Lord Of the Rings movies to stitch. Totally worth it. I’ll bring them to Indigo 101 at Paradigm Gardens on Sunday. There’s still room for you to join the fellowship of the blue.
