eyecandy, storm

The storm we were expecting fizzled. We did get about 1/3" of ice and then just a dusting of snow on top of it but now it's the cold and windchill. Right now it's only 11 degress out. This time yesterday it was 56. Windchill is like 1 degree.

This is what a piece of ice-dyed fabric looks like while it is batching.

This is an ice dyed piece after it was batched, rinsed and ironed. I had used some boysenberry in it and you can see some of the specks that didn't dissolve. I have to remember to strain that color before using it.

These two pieces are snowdyed pieces. I used pumpkin spice and bright orange, you really can't tell the difference between the two colors.

This is a piece of ice-dyed fabric I did yesterday. You really can't see it but the background is a really light yellow and you can see the black and the other color in it. I really like this piece and will do this technique again.

Another snowdyed piece.

The calm before the storm. It was a gorgeous day today the temp at 1:30 was 61 degrees out now it has started to rain and we are suppose to get freezing rain, sleet, and then snow we are under a winter storm watch until Tuesday night. Last I hear the amount they are predicting is 12". I sure hope we don't get thunder snow. If we do then we will have alot more snow then what they think we will get. Here are a few pictures of what it looks like out at 4:00pm.

Here are a few pieces of snowdyed I did yesterday. I did these a little different and really like what I got. The color I used was a black.
