The Living Canvas

08/28/2026

On this sunny day I'm inside, heat setting some of my silk sun dyed scarves.

I love the way the insects make interesting patterns in the leaves and I'm able to capture them on the finished piece.

I will be taking this scarf to Almonte Fibrefest .

I was sun dyeing multi coloured scarves under the sun lamps today as it was too hot to work outside.

I got some vivid colours and great results.

Customers are requesting my multi coloured sun dyed silk scarves and I’m equally anxious to start making them. Wish the weather would warm up and bring the plants out! #

More scarves going out today from my online store. Note the way the raspberry leaves were chewed by insects in the green/blue scarf, so unique.
