Hand Dyed Fabric

So once I saw Melody's quilt over on Fibermania ~ I knew that's the quilt I wanted to make with my hand dyed fabrics! My blocks are 16 x 16, QAYG, thank you Mariann. It still needs  borders or, maybe not.  All I know is, that it has been to hot to sew!  Today however, I did manage to dye 9 yards of fabric and my feet are killing me. And that's my excuse not to walk this evening :)  We are headed to AZ over the long weekend, only to be in 112 weather, so worth it tho, to see the grand kids.

  2. Love your version of Melody's quilt. As soon as I saw your quilt I thought, "I've gotta tell her about Mel's". But you beat me to that punch. I admire the dyers. I'm a buyer, not a dyer.
    I traveled North to WA to visit my grandkids. They were having the same lovely weather as we were here in CA. 600 miles each way! It's taking us a bit of time to get over the aches from all that sitting. Like you said... so worth it!
