I'm really enjoying printing on the velvet scarves I got from @dharmatradingco . They take natural dyes well and I think they're perfect for fall and winter. I really love the silver gray background color I got using a combination of wattle and myrobalan.

I've added beads to the hem of this silk satin shawl, that I printed with eucalyptus, liquidambar and maple leaves.

Sold! I made a visit to @manormillmonkton today, and it was so satisfying to see the red sold dot next to my thread painting, Fox and Raven Meet at The Log. My Galapagos Iguana piece is still available, along with artwork by other local artists in the Knot Just Wood Exhibit. Thanks so much to the buyer and to Manor Mill Gallery!

Thanks so much to everyone who stopped by my booth yesterday at @belairartsfestival! I had a fantastic day sharing my love of eco printing. Here's a look at one of the scarves that I was unbundling at the event. It's a silk charmuese scarf printed with leaves and flowers from my garden, and dyed with a madder and oak gall dye blanket.
