I'm pretty sure I've tipped over into 'nuts' or maybe 'wacko' is more my speed.  In any case I've lost it.
It's past my bedtime and I have one more dye batch to finish.  I know it's the middle of the week and I have work tomorrow, but I needed to use up the left over dye concentrate before it lost it's 'ompf' and I thought I'd just dye one little piece when I got home.
One turned into two...which turned into four, which quickly became six and then oh.. seven.  I'm tired and hurting from standing but I am so happy.  I'll post pictures of what I ended up with tomorrow when I can take the photos in good light.
I did this batch a lot differently.
It's pretty funny actually.  I wanted to make purple, so I started carefully measuring the red dye...and the cap fell off.  I figured, what the heck and just started dumping what I thought was a good amount.  I also didn't stir the fabric hardly at all.
I really like these pieces (at least the four I've seen so far).
I've been wanting to dye the fabric for the Hometown Christmas quilt.  But I'm not sure that's a good idea, since it would take even longer for me to experiment and find the colors I want.  I haven't gotten very far on the quilt yet.  So far I'm in a race to end up in last place.  I'm currently neck and neck with Yvonne!  ;)
Well, the washer just quit so I'm going to go see what the green piece ended up looking like!
