Ombre

This is right after it was hung up on the drying rack.

1 hour later

After it was set washed and ironed.

 I have struggled with ombre dying for the last year. I never seem to get it right....try try again. These were beautiful even before they were dyed and I was so worried that I would ruin yet another item with ombre dyeing.

Photographed for the shop and listed.

After they had dried they still didn't look correct. I had mixed another vat of indigo that day that was pretty strong so I repeated the process, this time in the new vat. Let them dry again and was thrilled with the surprise.










I would have kept them for myself but the DH is hitting the limit on the amount of stuff I am keeping. LOL Our home is like a commercial fabric store, I just need a sign on the front of our property!
I usually don't realize things have not turned out until they are on the ironing board, my happiness was so joyful that I realized they needed done again while still on the drying rack!
