Last weekend I did a two day plant-dyeing workshop with the very talented textile artist Anne Leon who travelled to the Qld Spinners and Weavers from Byron Bay. I had two wonderful days full of discovery and surprises. We used eucalyptus, lemon myrtle, brown and red onion skins, purple cabbage and cinerea which gave us wonderful and unexpected colours. What fun and I think now I am addicted, LOL.
