I have been going through my stash of fabrics and over-dyeing purple and plum dye on some 1980s prints in the soft peaches and greens that were popular then. I’m getting some interesting results. I like to do this on the stove and mix and match dyes to get my own blends and colours so it’s quite fun.
Next up is a batch in blues, generally overdyeing on green and white, but I’ve also received some of the handbag patterns I ordered a couple of weeks ago and that’s claiming my imagination somewhat.
Today I ordered some books on the history of handbags from the library and some sewing books because there is always something to learn about. How on earth do people get bored?
