Here’s a break from the knitting blogs. I plan to use two swatches of fabric that have been hand-colored with acrylic paint, and weave them together. If all goes well, the final result will be an interesting fabric suitable for working into a quilt. I painted this piece last month, using Jacquard Dye-N-Flow paints on an old bedsheet:

Kind of ordinary. Because the flowers are printed on the fabric, they will resist the paint. I actually have two pieces of this fabric. Here they are after colorwashing:
Part 2 of this project will happen tomorrow, after the paint dries. See you then!
