I love the darker colour and the blooms in that one. I thought the gradient turned out quite well, maybe it is easier to see in the photo, which I find tends to make the values more apparent. <br /><br />Will you be taking a break, or do you have another run planned soon?Monicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12224346283881001640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7064168154531295156.post-44394963912585772172014-06-04T07:39:05.502-07:002014-06-04T07:39:05.502-07:00beautiful! i love all the folded pieces.beautiful! i love all the folded pieces.knottygnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02645875149236777360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7064168154531295156.post-45032920662941471262014-06-04T02:43:04.325-07:002014-06-04T02:43:04.325-07:00How long do you leave your pieces to oxidise betwe...How long do you leave your pieces to oxidise between dips? The oxidation process is really important in developing the colour. I try to leave at least a couple of hours, and Jane Callender (http://www.callishibori.co.uk/) often leaves her pieces much longer! You may also want to try using vats of different concentrations.<br /><br />To minimise the mottling, you can try a couple of things. When you take the piece out of the vat, check it over for any bits of flower, and brush them off. Also (wearing gloves) you can move the fabric about when it is submerged in the vat, using your fingers to gently open out the pleats between the stitching, helping the dye to penetrate more evenly. Be sure that your stitching/thread is really strong and firm though! ;-)<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7064168154531295156.post-87985653086018620152014-06-03T23:34:59.446-07:002014-06-03T23:34:59.446-07:00how fabulous!
