These are the best from Monday's discharge pots. Most fabrics were processed in thiox, a few in bleach/water solution. They're all cotton and/or linen with the exception of the handwoven piece right below.
This handwoven piece was black cotton warp and black Tencel weft, and I'd woven it in a network draft. If you look hard you can see circles in the weave ~ they were much more noticeable before discharging, with the light playing differently off the two fibers. It looks African to me now. It's 30x15", just perfect for a wall piece without necessarily being quilted.
The range of resulting colors from the different black dyes fascinate me, and I love the palette. The three at the top left were bleached.
I neglected to mention in yesterday's post that I listed six new fabric bundles for sale on my Sales Blog over the weekend. Hope you like them!
