Shibori dyed Fabric covered buttons, not completly happy with the result, next time I will use fabrics with a more complex pattern and some sort of base fabric, the metal button kind of shows through the thin cotton. all the blue and gold fabrics were made for Fresh Purls
3 blue shibori fabric swatches dyed using clamping process and 2densities of dye
3 fabrics dyed using a clamping method and 2 densities of dye
This bed was dug and planted last fall, I'm pleased with the contrast between the plants, features: Purple smoke tree, 2 kinds of weiglia, coriopsis "moonglow", basil, and varigated sedum (sp?) I'm hoping to make the one I just dug resemble this someday
Started digging this garden bed back in April, finally finished it last weekend, all those rocks from the bed made a nice border! Eventually I will put plants in but I may wait until fall and hit the sales.
