Sandstones and Seashells

So, as promised, here is my latest batch of hand dyed fabric. These were dyed using a 30 step graduation kit.
This piece has a smattering of all 3 colors used to dye the fabrics above. One thing I learned this time...It is a good idea to place your baggies of fabric and dye (if using baggies to dye in) in a large bowl. Fortunately, I did. Otherwise I would have had blue and purple countertops...
I think they turned out great (at least relative to batch #2). Now, what to do with them...

The pastel gradations are lovely and should be very rewarding to work with.

This is a wonderful set of fabrics. I hope you have some terrific thing in mind for them. I'll never dye fabric, but I really admire those who can and do.
