Our bundle dye results!

The results from yesterday were very pleasing! We expected lots of reds and pinks but got light and deep purples instead. The yellows from the marigolds ranged from pale yellow to gold. We were able to achieve lots of details and imprints from the whole flowers we used. A mordant, like alum, would have probably yielded brighter and deeper colors, but mama and I like the muted tones we achieved. We are very happy and plan to collaborate again in the Fall.
