Rust Dyeing . . .

Recently, I went on a weekend workshop of Rust Dyeing with Alice Fox . . . 

Box of rusty split pins

My board of rusty wrapped specimens

Thread wrapped round rusty split pins, and dipped in tea to help the rust dyeing process

After the rust dyeing process, I start to assemble my dyed piecesRust dyeing involves, natural fabrics, threads and fibres, rusty objects, and tea used to create marks on fabrics and thread, which can be used in embroidery and textile art.
