You just explained to me - without words - why cosplay is so much fun. Awesome shirt. Who knew orange went with everything? Thanks!

I certainly didn't know that orange goes with everything. I was aiming for red! But that's the fun of natural dyeing; you never quite know what you're going to get when you do it. Thanks for watching 👍

Talk about really connecting to a piece. I am always so impressed by what you allow into your sphere of learning. Amazing color on this silk, and full on WOW on this shirt. But the bonus?? :-D Oh yea.

It was really satisfying to do and I wear it all the time now that it's cool enough to do so (silk above 80 degrees is ~not fun~). I'm definitely thinking about doing more combo projects with dyeing and sewing. I love having clothes with a story. :D

Don’t know why you popped up in my vid feed, but glad you did. I appreciate you taking the time to document the progression of your large and bold projects. I’m really glad you went for it and showed your glorious orange silk shirt off with all your costume gear. Very impressive and becoming. Seeing your costumes reminded me of L.E. Meyer’s Jacky Faber series. I listened to the audio of all of them recently. If you don’t know the series it’s about an orphan girl in a gang of pick pocket and thieves in 19th century London. Jacky longs to go to sea and see the world and she manages to get taken on a ship disguised as a boy and many adventures ensue. The audio includes many delightful sea shanties and ballads sung and accompanied by Jacky on fiddle and pipe, skills she adds to her quiver as she makes her way through life. It might serve as good listening during all that sewing and weaving.
