Indigo dye results came out light but beautiful. I also dip dyed a white wool sweater to disguise a faint but permanent stain. It goes great with the scarf I made from silk I bought in Paris!

I was hoping for some darker blues but the black walnut

I made this quilt during the Piece Flow Joy retreat @closmirabel -in between teaching - from materials I found there, in a scrap bin. Many of these left over linens, can be discovered in the different rooms in the manor house - yellow curtain scraps
