Well the ecoprinting course has finished. I have a single bed's worth of wool (blanket) samples, and a similar area of linen samples. I think the linen may get made into a book, and I'm thinking of a blanket curtain from all the blanket samples. I've also overdyed two blouses for myself, three antique (pre-war) domestic service aprons and two caps, and two pairs of silk bloomers and two silk petticoats. Overdyed some fabric I printed on the previous course, and taken apart a linen nightie to recycle as a dress. Altogether a pretty successful course. Now working towards the exhibition at the Foxlowe Gallery in Leek - which starts on 20 August. I have a number of ideas, but I need to actually put them into practice!
