you are my sunshine

I'm not sure how or why, but I feel much better today. I woke up refreshed and ready to go. make. art. Maybe I've gotten the rhythm of this place a little more figured out. Or maybe it is because, once again, I have remembered that I love cloth and dye and making things. Making art makes me happy. Simple, I know, but sweet to the soul.

Lisa showed us a dyeing technique yesterday that intrigues me. It's a form of shibori that uses folding to create a pattern on cloth. I've seen it used many times before, but never tried it myself. Last night I folded and dyed some cloth, today it will be dry and I can see what I've got.
