And this was very close the the second colour I was working with yesterday in day two of my printing of fabric class. I really didn’t mix enough of it and because I thought it was going to run out and that it was highly unlikely I would not be able to reproduce it I was extremely frugal with it. Also, since it had a a vast amount of white in it the colour dries really fast. I can’t tell you how many times I had to wash out my screen despite my best efforts – all part of learning I suppose.
Again, this is not normally a colour I would go for and I don’t know why I was so fixated on it and the ‘new bud’ colour from last week. The result is really nice and yes, I promise I will share it with you just as soon as we have something resembling a sunny day so I can take a half decent photo.
