The day after the snow I went for a walk at a local National Trust property. No snow and nearly all the leaves had gone - beautiful though.
I had to get some more patchwork fabric for a challenge I'm doing with my mum (You'll see it when it's finished). Close to the shop is a garden centre whose carpark is the parking for the patchwork shop also. In the car park were Prancer and Dancer (mother and son). It certainly brings a smile but it's a shame they are penned up like this.
I sorted my pile of dyed fabric from the other week and decided I needed to overdye most of it. Some of it had too much white showing or it was too pale, some needed toning down and some I just didn't like. Dyed this lot on Saturday morning.....
Left it for about 24 hours and rinsed on Sunday morning. Some of them are great and some have improved but still need more work. Some pieces have already made me think about what I want to do with them.
I must find some pictures I took on holiday that will help with inspiration for some of these pieces of fabrics. Trouble is, I ought to be doing stuff for Christmas. I know it'll all get done, it always does but I need to stay sane!
