Snow dyeing is all the rage in some parts of the art quilt community. Good thing we have some snow here in PA! I’m planning to try this new technique today. Here’s a link to a good tutorial: DippyDyes@verizon.net I’ll post pictures of the process as I go along. It’s been a while since I dyed so I’m looking forward to this adventure! The basic premise is to use the melting snow over the dyed material to create intriguing colourations & patterns.
The next Sew Diva Meeting will be at my house. Since it’s right before Valentine’s Day, I’m thinking the food theme will be “red”. Maybe borscht & red velvet cake…now all I need is a red entree that will satisfy vegetarians & meat eaters alike. I may have to give up the borscht idea…oh well, I still have a while. And now that the basic food theme is set, I need to come up with an activity. I’m thinking Self Portraits so I’ll have to do a lot of fusing in preparation. We only have a couple of hours to fit in eating & creating!
