I spent the afternoon learning how to dye cloth. Here are some of the objects we used.

Hi,
We just got home from Seneca an hour ago, but I couldn’t wait to read my e-mail. What beautiful fabric you made. Wow!!!!!
Hugs,

Very pretty! Nice work!

This is very similar to the traditional national fabric they used in Czech for their dance/holiday costumes. We use a different iron & don’t cook lunch over the fire…but the stamping & dye process is the same. Fun to see this in your cultural context

Very nice!! What will you use the cloth for?
Auntie Beccasays
Andi, you continue to delight and amaze me! You go girl!!!

Okay… this takes crafts to a whole new level. Once I dyed a skein of yarn using a box of Jello and I thought I was crafty. The process here is incredible. Will the dye hold up to washing? You will sure cherish those cloths after doing it in the heat. May God bless those relationships you are cultivating by entering into their culture and their way of doing things. I can’t wait for the lesson in goat skinning. 🙂 Just kidding.

Wow! That’s quite the process!!! I’ve never dyed anything & don’t plan on doing it any time soon. Sure did turn out pretty. You are learning SO MUCH about life, GOD, culture, etc. etc. Blessings to you & yours.

What a different way of getting material you have. Much more involved than buying some fabric at Jo Ann’s. You probably learned the whole process in French which is another milestone. What was that “snack”? I couldn’t tell if it was a squash or watermelon.
Prayers are poured out for you! “God is our refuge and strength. A very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth be removed, though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea, though its waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling.”
Ps 46:1-3
