Sadie, Day 3

The background dyes have batched and been rinsed out along with all the wax. After a wash and press, it's now ready for the next step....painting the details.



I pinned it up on the design next to Henrietta. It really illustrates how much richer the dyes look, even when diluted down for a wash effect.  There is just nothing like hand dyed fabric in my opinion!

So the next step is to start the painting with the thickened dyes to bring Sadie some color. That will take me a few days, so stay tuned.
