Finished Quilt!

Quilt. 48 x 60 inches. Hand quilted. Naturally Dyed. Hand stitched binding. 

The fabric was naturally dyed using the following materials: Osage Orange Tree Wood, Rosemary, Cutch, Cochineal, Lac, Blackberries, Avocado Pits and Japanese Maple Leaves. 

I spent every single spare second I had on this project, which is why I was able to finish it so fast. I want to say it took around 30 hours to complete everything (not including the dyeing).

From Dark to Light / Natural Dyeing.

Did some "Night Dyeing" the other night, which is great for hang–drying freshly dyed fabric because it's supposed to stay out of direct sunlight. This time around, I dyed with Cutch (wood of the Acacia Catechu tree) and I absolutely cannot get enough of the color palette, I love it so much! (The khaki gray and dark browns are achieved from using an "iron" after-bath). I. Love. Cutch.
