Many thanks to Oliver Nurseries and everyone who joined me on a blustery Saturday for Plants to Dye For. It was a wild success! I’m grateful for such a gorgeous place to teach and to everyone who enthusiastically stayed after the talk to dye things indigo. Stay tuned for updates on the next dye workshop!

Fingers crossed we get good weather Saturday! I’ll be at Oliver Nurseries in Fairfield talking about how to make natural dyes with plants in your garden. It’s at 10am and is free. Sign up and get more details at Oliver’s website. The nursery itself is set up like a botanical garden if you’ve not visited. It’s a treat! See you there!

Sometimes you want your confetti on ivory, sometimes on black. Just finished sewing these last week and all I wanna do is make more in different sizes.

I’ve made navy blue and black clutches before, and I still love the combo all these years later. Blue is one of the harder leather colors for me to find used, so it’s precious. Totally repurposed, the blue leather here is from a jacket and the blacks are all different leathers allowing me to use even the tiniest scraps. These are headed to my shop soon!

A new batch of natural dyed silk scarves is happening! I had great results with indigo that one warm day we had two weeks back. More pictures to come. These will debut at my presentation at Oliver Nurseries May 30th.

Finally! Sewn a year back, quilted six months ago, and bound in February, it’s complete! This quilt is about one yard square and is made with 13 shades of red, all repurposed from thrifted apparel. The pattern is an improv sewn log cabin variation. The back is solid red and there’s organic cotton batting inside. Aside from the delays, this quilt took a lot more sewing than some I’ve made. On to the next!
