sometimes it’s very hard to be patient. but usually worth the wait.
the last two lessons have been all about stitched shibori. we are learning a lot.
patience is a big lesson.

So your hand stitching was pulled tightly and then it was dyed?

yes! stitching is more enjoyable than gathering. at least for me. the gathering can be frustrating.

amazing- I like the singled out dark squares…Is this the piece you showed us in progress awhile ago that everyone wanted to see the finished results? So did you tie off the squares and dye light blue, then do the thread resist on each “pouch” of fabric from each square and then redye in dark?

yes, it’s the same piece. and you figured it out! so think about only gathering up some parts or binding up some, dyeing once, binding or releasing some, then dyeing again. it’s endless…
