I love the process of dyeing and am excited to have finally found the right recipe and dyes!!!!! So here is the $64,000 question: What am I going to do with the yardage once it's made? I know I want some pattern that will show off the gradations of color. I am thinking of Trip Around the World but I'm sure there are more interesting and creative patterns out there....what do you think???? What would YOU make with this? I'm also going to dye two tshirts, some embroidery floss that will match the 12 fabrics and some fat quarters that will be multicolored.....ohhh, I can't wait!!! Looking forward to your ideas!!!!!!
