I love this Saori woven scarf. The colours brighten any outfit.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I beaded the ends to give it a bit of weight and interest.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was made on a loom at whilst I was at The Saori Shed in Diss.</div>

I am really enjoying my weaving , I had been using a rigid heddle for a long time and not being very adventurous until I met Kim from the Saori Shed in Diss Norfolk.<br />
I love to go there and weave , the atmosphere is good and Kim is a really relaxed and friendly person.</div>

About six months ago I wrapped a cotton handkerchief around some leaves and hid it under a hedge near a path where I walk my dogs. Until today I had completely forgotten about it but as we were wandering along nearby I wondered if it would still be there. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I found it almost immediately as one of my dogs was sniffing by the hedge where we hid it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My eco dyeing experiment was amazing. Lots of colours and patterns deeply marked into the fabric; it might not have lasted much longer as there are some tiny holes within it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here it is before washing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Today I have been rust dyeing. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is a bundle of fabrics with some of my collection of rusty items wrapped up inside.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I left this for about four hours before I unwrapped it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now the cloth has been rinsed and is soaking in a bucket of water and bicarbonate to halt the rusting process.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigJdl0T1OVvsr8W3Q_q9VC03OlyQBPBSF-FSkbikoSYDAfqjGLddH-IMDHe_AUH8OdIWGwAcytlY_kfhIjIACyxLuZJzGgSaHPIw7FODLY_1XbULEQaVlBjRMhnahbCUDinppDujebwzE/s1600/IMG_1620.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigJdl0T1OVvsr8W3Q_q9VC03OlyQBPBSF-FSkbikoSYDAfqjGLddH-IMDHe_AUH8OdIWGwAcytlY_kfhIjIACyxLuZJzGgSaHPIw7FODLY_1XbULEQaVlBjRMhnahbCUDinppDujebwzE/s320/IMG_1620.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These bundles are eco dyeing. Wrapped amongst the layers of fabric are leaves and small branches that I find on my walks. I only use fallen leaves etc as I won’t take from the tree. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The bundle is simmering in a dyepot to which has been added a couple of ordinary tea bags plus a turmeric tea bag to enhance the colours.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Once cold these bundles will be rinsed and put into the bicarbonate mix.</div>

I have given myself permission to play !</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sounds daft doesn't it but Carolyn Dube's free workshop does just that.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Releasing the inner child to really enjoy your art work.. watch this space for my messy or not so messy results. <br />
I love the fact that Carolyn encourages use of what you already have rather than spending loads of money on new supplies, plus of course, the workshop is free!!</div>

There is a facebook page as well just called </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

This is my first weeks work. I used a vintage linen chair back cover and decided to work shapes randomly and then tie it all together once I have used up most of the space. I started with a circle and then added the heart, using a water dissolvable pen to draw the shapes so that I could keep the shapes reasonably uniform.</div>

To practice some more stitches and learn more about embroidery, I bought Rebecca Rinquist's great book. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love it, the bonus was that at the end of the book was a little pocket with a cotton sampler to stitch. </div>

Once I had finished working with those glorious autumn colours, I worked on a blue fabric book.<br />
This page is made up of threads trappped in Sulky and free machined to make a lacy delicate fabric.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then the two pieces were layered on blue velvet.</div>

Sunday was a day of rest and relaxation. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After a very good carvery and nut roast for me, my daughter and son in law (and Frankie of course) walked with me through the fields. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We took in the warmth of the sun and the fresh air and felt revitalised and peaceful.</div>

Sad to see that the cliffs of the North Norfolk coast are eroding so quickly.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Each time I visit there is less of the cliff walk, the people who live in the houses along that stretch of coast must be devastated to know that they will lose their homes to the sea.</div>

The tattered sheet and some other random white cotton off cuts have been in my Indigo pot.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The sun has been glorious and the fabric dyed and dried . I love it, once pressed it will be cut and hand stitched to add to my cotton cover.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-taoFBz0LpeE/V3_r4jNC7BI/AAAAAAAADlY/1-alBzSa0eoK2o8Lbcosi4WMfcsxzwYmwCKgB/s1600/image.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-taoFBz0LpeE/V3_r4jNC7BI/AAAAAAAADlY/1-alBzSa0eoK2o8Lbcosi4WMfcsxzwYmwCKgB/s320/image.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The piece with the leaves on was gifted to me as it was a screen print tester and not perfect. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the randomness of it and it's mistakes add to its character.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have quite a bit more of it that I will dye another day.</div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I tied some of the fabrics before immersing in the pot to give a little variation in colour.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You can just about see that the piece on the left is showing a little tie dye effect.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am looking forward to working with it all.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This is an experiment in solar dyeing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I immersed some white cotton in water that had a mordant added to it then added oak leaves and some flower seeds. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hopefully the warmth of the sun will encourage some magic to happen.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Stitching lots of 9 patch blocks using embroidery thread to oversew each patch together.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It is so relaxing to hand sew and it's so portable. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I can stitch when I am in the car, as a passenger of course!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope to make a cover for my bed without wadding so that it feels and moves like simple cloth.</div>

Today was calm and beautiful and the big Norfolk sky was full of amazing cloud formations.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The windmills were nearly still, only just the slight breath of breeze to tempt the blades to turn.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The wheat is starting to ripen, the field beans are tall and strong and the rapeseed pods appear to be ready to harvest.</div>

Beauty is all around in the colours of the flowers and the beautiful contrast with the multiple shades of green. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It is so easy to pass by and not observe if in a rush. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My life on the walks is very meditative now, listening to the song of all the birds and zoning in to that which is all around.</div>
