Studio Inspiration

I am a very frugal person --- even with my fabric scraps. I have cardboard squares that I stack the scraps on, sorted by color. When I need some inspiration, they are right at my fingertips to sort, rearrange, stack, collage, etc. These photos are some of the piles this morning.

On another note, we had a full-fledged, shut-down-the-interstates blizzard yesterday. If you don't have to drive in it, a blizzard is not a bad thing. It forced me to stay home, and what a day I had! I dyed a newly sewn outfit in a terra cotta dyepot yesterday. Today I will overdye it in the indigo dyepot. I also designed the first layer on a new piece in purples and golds. It is much bigger than I've been working recently. Stay tuned for photos over the weekend!
