Colour!

Single vs multipigment test 2 thumbnail.jpg

I may have been quiet on social media for the last couple of weeks but I have been busy in the studio working on my next book. The world outside is still an upsetting mess but life in the studio has been a calm, colour filled oasis of gentle productivity. There is still a very long way to go but I have been playing with my Procion MX dyes. Exploring them individually, mixing them to create hundreds of new colours and dyeing fabric. Life feels good.

I was also delighted to receive my copy of the Contemporary Quilt newsletter. It is a special addition focused on the theme of colour and Iā€™m proud to have written one of the articles entitled Colour and Breakdown Printing. The front cover is from the very talented Alicia Merrett. Maggie Jarman and Annie Henderson-Begg have done a splendid job under difficult circumstances and it is much appreciated ā€¦. receiving the newsletter through the post felt like a return to normal. Even if we all know that normal is going to be different.

Stay well, Leah
