to dye

once more i was excited to get the supercraft in the mail. it's not the summer but it has been the spring kit, so far just sitting there and waiting for me to take a moment and get going.
it is so perfect to have my thursday afternoons and so it was dye time... i have not been doing any dyeing lately, as it is a somewhat polluted craft. though never the less, i was having fun and for a moment put the color and it's implications on nature a side. i did try to figure out, what the pollution factor is with the "marabu batik farben", though could not find anything on the web. i did decide to not use a fixator, which i assumed would be more of a problem.
i'm tempted to get going, it is such a fun process to change uni colored clothes and fabrics into something new and maybe even colorful.
for a next project i would like to use natural pigment, like onion skins or  berries or what ever else is possible...
