I am looking over the fabrics I dyed in both Carol Soderlund and Jan Myers-Newbury's classes these last two weeks.
Since I went into both classes with no agenda other than to learn all I could I was slightly surprised how well the fabrics from one class worked with the fabrics from the other.
These were the fabrics I dyed for our Thursday project in Carol's class.
This group of fabrics started as a dark to light gradation of yellow fabrics. I overdyed them all with the same olive green using the same technique on all of them. These were done in Jan's class.
In addition to having the same olivey color this piece picks up the blue from the fourth example in the first photo. This was done in Jan's class.
It was a surprise to me that the fabrics we dyed and then discharged had my olive palette color when discharged.
Even these silk fabrics have the same color signature. Jan's class again.
I always am attracted to greens and blue greens.
In addition to these I also love fall and the colors Mother Nature provides to feast our eyes on.
But if I want to be honest I think I really love all colors and enjoy working with them, changing my palette I use from time to time.

It looks like a good group of fabrics to choose from for your next project. Of course they will be hard to cut into since they are little art pieces all by themselves.
I finally figured out why I like shibori so much, it looks like zebra stripes. I have a little bit of zebra in every room in my house and many, many zebra striped fabrics.
