Nice to hear from you Lesl...Thanks Fiona and Marion<br />Nice to hear from you Lesley. I used a dye bath of the Eucalyptus Cinerea I collected from the council clean up in copper and aluminium pots. I used some of the iron spikes we collected and I had some large flat steel rectangles and shibori folded the felt inside these. I didn't have too many in the pot at once and gave them a good boil for at least two hours, left them to cool in the water and opened the next day. The leaves inside are cinerea and others I've found nearby that I have no idea what they are. We don't seem to have any thing like the trees in Victoria so I'm still experimenting with what I can find. The banksia leaf resist print is a leaf I brought back and keep recycling. I spose it will fall apart soon but it is such a beautiful structural shape.Pam de Groothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130387286657919855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-297880410038173269.post-28343993529647540782009-06-21T15:54:58.429-07:002009-06-21T15:54:58.429-07:00Well,I'm impressed.
