Funny Story

So after I dyed the second round of cloth, I got so excited that I stopped taking detailed pictures or writing down the notes on the blog. It was just too much for me to handle, I guess!

Tomorrow will have a complete list of all fabrics and a simplified-yet-detailed description of how I got each one.

See you tomorrow! 

Woah

It's been a while since I posted pictures of any of the fabric I've dyed; turns out I've been so busy with everything in the studio that I've neglected to update any pictures.

I'll be remedying this soon.

Stay tuned!

Days of Summer

Yet another Starkid song! This makes three.

Definitely putting some of these lyrics somewhere on my quilt.

Water

I'm a fan of taking close-ups of water. I really like the lines and ripples that the water and light makes. I was able to experiment with this over the summer when I went to Yellowstone.

Maybe I'll write something about water on one of my pieces or try to recreate the lines.

(All pictures were taken by me)

Phantom!

I absolutely LOVE The Phantom of the Opera. I love almost every adaption. I love the story, I love the characters, I love everything.

And I absolutely love the costuming.

 

These costumes are some of my absolute favorite. It would be super cool if I could somehow dye a piece to look like one of these costumes!

(All pictures obtained through Google)

Final Project Idea

I think I want to try and make a quilt. This past year has been insane, and it would be really super cool to have something that represents everything I've been through, good and bad.

Star Wars Concept

I got a idea for a piece I want to do, so I (poorly) sketched it all out.

First, I'll do a free float dye in blue:

Then I'll flag fold overdye in a darker blue/indigo:

I'll bleach lines onto it and put some gold/silver dots on:

Lastly, I'll add a quote from me and my friends:

The quote comes from one of the last times we all hung out before the two left to serve LDS missions, so I'd love to be able to incorporate something silly from my friends.
