But I have experienced that when you 'throw that ideal out the window' the result tends to be surprising and better than I would have imagined. The fabric turned out beautiful! I can't wait to see how the blouse looks.antohttp://www.stardustsoul.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937322106192241083.post-57649279050578205722013-03-03T12:56:57.770-08:002013-03-03T12:56:57.770-08:00Yay!

I've always wondered why looking at those packets of dye... they just didn't feel right. Now I know - it's the whole manufactured thing. In fact, I bought some dye a while back but hadn't felt right using it... so I'm going to try exactly that. Mix it up!<br />The dots are fabulous, this is going to sew up into an awesome blouse. Asymmetrical and unstructured always makes me feel naughty in a giddy, awesome way. Probably because in my field of work, asymmetrical and unstructured gets yo'ass fired. Breaking the rules was never so much fun!poppykettlenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937322106192241083.post-62202986112336545992013-03-01T03:19:32.060-08:002013-03-01T03:19:32.060-08:00This looks amazing - so clever.This looks amazing - so clever.ZoSewshttp://twitter.com/ZoSewsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937322106192241083.post-43666273248762693112013-02-28T10:53:20.954-08:002013-02-28T10:53:20.954-08:00I love your handmade polka dots!!

Can't wait to see what you come up with so we can compare notes! I really need to improve my shirtmaking skills.... Oh and this color is lovely. I love dye mixing!

I remember that from art school too. Mixing is a must. I bought various dyes while I was in NY so that my bra notions can make the fabric.
