Handwork

Today our Athens Sugar Bees met and I had time to finish a hand-sewing project and make two felted pincushions from felted wool sweater pieces...


The fabric under the pincushions is one of the over-dyed black pieces I worked on this week. This particular black dye has a blue hue, which I like much better than the red or green based black dyes. I'll get some better photos of those dyed fabrics tomorrow, but here's another one...

It's pretty obvious what the fabric looked like before I over-dyed it. Not so attractive "before", but lovely "after".
