I have written before about a couple of the farms in
my area that were sold and the buildings and
barns being torn down to make way for housing.
It breaks my heart every time that I see it.
This was the back of the farm where I spotted the
Rainbow.
The road is now closed that passed the farm but
the cross road is now opened after 2 months of
doing what ever they're doing.
This is what it looks like now
The old road is on the left side and the new curved
road is on the right side. I find it interesting to watch
the progress of each stage.
Now I'm wondering - do they have to move all of those
telephone poles to the new road? Only time will tell
or we lose our electric ugh!
The landscape is changing dramatically.

I have been dyeing more shibori fabric which
I feel more passionately each time I make a
new piece.

Blue and Violet - soothing colors and lines.

This piece was over dyed (dyed twice) using Arashi Shibori
(pole wrapped) technique resulting in the beautiful
colors that you see.
Colors - Mustard Yellows, Shades of green and an Indigo Blue color
The fun part is experimenting with colors and the
size of the lines.
Have a great week!
And
Make something beautiful!
I understand that society needs to move forward but it does make me sad to see old roads and farms disappear or change :(
ReplyDeleteYour fabric is SO beautiful!
Yes Tammy the landscape is changing rapidly in my area. Another very large farm just sold and they're going to build a huge Sports and Swimming center with a shopping area. The traffic is going to be mind boggling!
ReplyDeleteThank you - I'm really enjoying myself dyeing and trying all different techniques.
