Preparing

We are expecting rain this weekend. That will actually work out nicely for me since I plan to do

a batch of tie dyes. I've gotten the shirts prepped and they are soaking in an activator solution. I also got my order of Pima cotton, 8 yards of potential in pure white I bound up one experiment and cut a few pieces of fabric to make some more vat dyes

Since I will have the dyes out I also prepped a piece of black cotton for some arashi discharge.

I'm not especially adept at arashi so this will come out more organic/dynamic than most examples of the technique. I think it will suit the purpose I have in mind for it though. Keeping my fingers crossed.
