Hi, Just catching up. Looks like a fun day! I have a question about the fabric being held by Nellie Pennington in the first photo. I purchased some fabric in those colours from a dyer...Loved it. But eventually used it all. I commissioned her to do more fabric, but either she misunderstood just what I was looking for with those colours or she has quite changed her method. Anyway, do you recall how those colours were achieved? I can work out patterning, but what I really want are the colours!!!
