The next project...

The “Linen Dress 1” (working title).

Dyeing = Science + Witchcraft

Dyeing = Know + Unknown

Dyeing = Controlled + Uncontrolled

I love wearing boots, but its time to kick them off.

Next Sunday I’m looking forward to K&S at Edinburgh, first time the show has been north of the border.  
Looking forward to it.
