More round coasters. This time in shades of blue.
Pictured above: evidence that I don't have any self control. The fabric was barely out of the washing machine when I decided that I MUST make more so that I can make something with it.
Swirl design in a different colorway and, actually a different way of working. Rather than dye the base fabric a color, draw on the swirls and then overdye in another color, I dyed the fabric in a medium value color(turquoise), drew the design and then discharged the fabric. This turquoise tends to bleach practically white. I then overdyed into a wonderful golden yellow.
The second in the series.

I just found your blog, Etsy, and flickr through Whipup. I have nearly gone through your entire archives already! I have to say that each piece you post is so beautiful and inspirational. So lovely! I will be making yours a regular read.
Beautiful! I love the both colourways for the swirl design. I can see why you could barely wait for the fabric to dry before stitching it up. It's gorgeous!
So much inspiration from your talented hands.
Thanks y'all.
I just made the happy discovery of your blog and wanted to tell you that I think it a marvelous celebration of patterns and color!
Again, amazing pillow! The quilt top pieces were framed perfectly and I love the embroidery accents. So gorgeous!
