yep, those of you who have visited these pages before
may like to reach for the sunglasses
i have decided to abandon the funereal black
and whitewash the walls a bit
the images above are of eucalyptus ecoprint
on delicious silk velvet
the objects have felt-induced wrinkles
very cool red..I had no idea that eucalyptus would create that shade!
ReplyDeletedazzling and gorgeous. snowing here, nice to see RED.
ReplyDeletehear hear...enough with the black already!!! lighter is gooood.
ReplyDeletemuch much easier on the eye. i DO like the black as it looks so wonderfuly dramatic but it aint easy.
ReplyDeleteNary a wrinkle in the new blog look, India! It is a metamorphosis of the utmost delight - good, yes, very good whitewashing I'd say...
ReplyDeleteI wish my own wrinkles looked as delicious as your felt-induced ones :>]]
Bought your book and loved it. Then found the blog and enjoying it. Normally a lurker but surfaced to say that I love that red.
ReplyDeletecoool colors!
ReplyDeletelovely
and so is the whitewash ;)
Change is always good.
ReplyDeleteAlthough i loved you black blog, this is spring.
Eucalyptus on velvet looks very beautiful.

Thanks so much for changing the background. I've been reading for a while and the black was pretty hard on the eyes.
ReplyDeleteAs I'm a new commenter: Your work is awesome and I love your book even though I'm not a dyer, well not since I was young anyways. I gave up dye-ing because of the chemicals. I make other things with plants now but recognise much in your work.
blessings,

ReplyDeleteYes, I agree that this color is easier on the aging eyes. I've been having trouble with subtitles lately too!
ReplyDeleteI do enjoy your blog, whatever color it may be!

I liked the black, but I love change too!
ReplyDeleteI've been wearing black clothes for a long time, and two months ago I had got enough of it all of a sudden.
I love your red ecoprint very much!
