After a week long family holiday in beautiful Vietnam, it was great to get back into dyeing some fabrics. I had been given a plastic pvc pipe from the maintenance man at school and was ready to do some shibori dyeing. (I think he must have thought I was a little mad asking for pvc pipe and rusty things!)

Wrap fabric around pipe together with twine and scrunch to the end |
|
Soak in Soda ash then paint on purple dye |
|
Finished orange/purple |
|
Finished white/purple
|
There is still more purple dye left so today I will be doing another batch. Absolutely LOVE this technique and the results!
I was delighted at getting a pvc pipe from school and then yesterday I noticed the words on it.....
"Sewer Pipe" Hmmmm.......
