cross section of a project: jellyfish pillow – part 2

Continued from previous post.

Step 5: light blue dye bath.

pleats, woodgrain effect, crumpled, circles, and plain blue (with screen prints)

I do love the circles, but they're kind of a pain... you will notice the pieces with circles are getting smaller.

But it is not just blue, because pink and blue make a very vivid purple. So (parts of) pieces from part 1 continue on:

pink overdyed with blue

and:

pink shibori overdyed with blue with wax resists.

And then the most complicated bit, the pink pieces subjected to shibori techniques before being dyed blue:

pleats, woodgrain effect (both on plain), and circles (over crumpled pink)

And this, too:

mustard yellow, overdyed light blue; pleated (left), crumpled (right)

Step 6: prepare pieces for third dye bath (more pink!)
