 because yesterday was dyeing day and it was a busy one! 50 yards this week. Later today I will wash all of this out and start the 48 hour soaking process. Sunday is going to be a very busy ironing day!  I intended to sew last night but I was too tired. Instead I added another ball of yarn to this quilt. I only have 2 balls left to finish this one up so I'll probably focus on it the next couple of days and get it wound up. I hope this will be big enough to be a blanket for a dialysis patient. It's going to be a large lap size.
But today will be at the sewing machine with a break to go vote. I'm voting early because it's likely I'll not be assigned to my home precinct this time. I always prefer to vote on election day but I'm glad we now have early voting options.

Fifty yards is a LOT of fabric to dye in one day. I will be watching to see if there are any fun NEW fabrics added to the shop.

I was tired enough from just dyeing those four small pieces of cross stitch fabric so I can't even imagine the work it takes to dye 50 yards! That blanket looks like it will be so cozy! Comments are closed.
