On August 13th, Lee Ann Bell unexpectedly, and tragically passed away in her sleep.
Lee Ann was such an amazing creative person, with a want for knowledge that drove her creative spark and and desire for appreciation of her works. She had a sharp wit and a dry sense of humor with a laugh the would light up your soul. She is missed every moment.
A little print that just fell out of the sky for me. I hope you'll let me know what you think of it!
Itajime dyed silk organza. I dyed it navy then folded and clamped it, discharged it in thiox then while it was still folded and clamped, overdyed it red. Tomboy Design created the kimono pattern and finished it. The organza is double layered to make it less sheer and to create an interesting pattern in the background. I hope you like it! I just love it so much!
Sheer silk organza dyed navy then folded and clamped and discharged then overdyed with oxblood red. I'm thrilled with it!
A new print! I think I'm going to make a duvet cover out of it. I'm really pleased with this one. I've been thinking about how to do it now for about a year, finally I have a solution!
I'll be at Somerset Ridge Winery on June 12th for an art show. Lots of great artists and being out in the vinyard sounds like a great way to spend the day! Hope you can come!
A silk charmeuse tied shibori scarf. The colors are subtle but I think the photo shows it well.
3 yards of black rayon that I stitched, tied and then discharged in bleach. I'm thrilled with it. The rayon has a great hand to the fabric, I've really enjoyed working with it.
A gradated rayon piece. Yellows to red. I'm really pleased with this. I did this pattern before on silk and had a hoodie made from it.
Eggplant stitched rayon scarf. I am really liking the rayon scarves, they take the dye beautifully and feel great. They have a nice hand to the fabric and drape wonderfully.
