fall

I was going to call this post "autumn" to sound more sophisticated, but fall is more appropriate. We went from a 3 month burn ban due to dry weather to flooding and erosion due to torrential rain. I heard reference to a typhoon today...We fell into autumn.

Ages ago I did an on line dye project with a group from Delphi. We all dyed a rainbow of fabric with a set formula adding a little more of each color to the dye bath for each next color. It wasn't bright primaries. I made a simple quilt top to display the fabric then folded it up and forgot about it. Today when I was looking for fabric for another color based quilt I found it. It's bigger than I thought, with an additional border, it's ready to be sandwiched and stitched into an actual quilt.

I kind of like it but a border will make it so that middle strip of red to purple doesn't run away off the edge. Wow. It was so long ago that both Mom and Dad were alive when I did the dye project and I was living in my favorite if decaying apartment in Juneau. Huh.
