fabric dyeing at Sew Much To Do



lots of fun and creativity at a dyeing day in ely- you can see that it was all under control and no mess left in the work room. a good job it was a hot day and we could get our fabrics dry quickly in the courtyard. can't wait to see what the girls make with their newly coloured cottons.
