A day to dye for.

I'm in a knee slapping/slap happy state of mind. 6 hours of dyeing in the hot sun will do that to me. I can only imagine how dsis G managed and she did most of the work! The goal of the day was a sheet sets for Auntie B.

Here is some of the tying / twisting process.

Here is the dye table and some of the dyeing process.

Including, one of Jules, always distinctive pieces.

In the end I think my take home portion included:

6 gift bags

1 queen size flat sheet

7 pillow cases

3 XL kids shirts (Jay, Jules, and Cousin K)

1 M V neck for me.

I can't even think about how much G took home with her.

Tomorrow, we rinse and wash and I may show then. Not that I'm sure when I'm going to find time to rinse and wash tomorrow.
What I'm really excited about it the possibility of hanging a line at Dad's house and having them all up and beautiful for Auntie E's birthday celebration.

Are we done? Nope. We'll dye again next week. I'll make a bunch of additional pillow cases and gift bags to share with Auntie C and for Auntie G to keep in her "stuff to dye" bag. I'd really love to find a woven worthy of turning into bags to dye for the kids in the fam.
