Back to the North for Awhile!

On my way back north, I stopped in Pennsylvania at my friend Dianne's and we did a day of dyeing.  We both wanted to have light values and this was the result.  I was pretty happy with it and I am sure I will be able to use  For so long, I have done a lot of dyeing things pretty dark. 

We started with Sun Yellow, Golden Yellow, Tangerine, Grass Green and Neutral Navy with 1 per cent solutions  We then overdyed with Intense Blue, Navy, Turquoise, Mixing Red and Dark Green (all ProChem colors).  The second set was half per cent solutions.  I think the tangerine and Intense Blue might have been a little over the hill as they seemed lighter than usual which was okay!

Altogether, we each ended up with 35 yards of dyed fabric.  We had all different kinds of fabrics -- a couple of my really light ones obviously were not PFD!  That is okay as I have found out that you get really even color with these iffy fabrics!  Each "pot" had 12 yards of fabric in them so we used old empty kitty litter boxes of which I have a bundle!!

I am finally using up the incredible amount of PFD fabrics I  had accumulated over the years but still have some!!
