It is just a lot of trial and error. You wouldn't believe the pile of fabric I have that didn't turn out and is waiting to be redyed. That's the beauty of dying your own. You can always go for another look.

They are both beautiful. My grandmother grew this flower in her back yard in Brooklyn. I cannot see one without thinking of her and times that are long gone.

They look great!!!

Will pm you for pattern. Thank you for listening to my story. |
Beautiful. I recently bought procion dyes but haven't got round to playing with them yet - can't wait though! :-D
|
Love, love your iris quilts! Very beautiful.
|
I am very lucky. I have 2 kitchens so the mess can be left in one. Do be careful of the chemicals though, they can be dangerous.

Love the iris patterns. I have several I want to use someday. I also have enough blocks appliques for a quilt top, just haven't put them together. At one time I had over 500 named iris in a garden but gave most away when I went to work full time and couldn't take care of them anymore. My friend had 1200 different ones! Yours are very beautiful.

those are both stunning, as usual.

Have you posted how you dye your fabric? My first attempt was rather sad---colors looked rather murky. Your fabric is fantastic. |

Iris are easy to grow. All they need is a lot of sun and no wet feet. Treat yourself and plant one. |
Beautiful. You did a great job.
|
Ah! You always have such neat things that you do. I really like these too.
|
They both are beautiful.
|
Wow very pretty!
