Something has worked! Yeh!

For the first time l am am quite pleased with my Eco Dyeing experiments. That is, of the few l have actually opened! These were done on heavy watercolour paper. I am pleased with myself actually because normally l have no willpower BUT l am managing NOT to open most of my experiments. I plan to open them at the end of December, a sort of early Christmas present for myself. The paper prints l am intending to turn into a paper quilt.

  1. These look wonderful! You are very patient. I never can wait. I can barely wait for them to cool down before opening the package! Must try to hang on. How long do you wait?
