Here is my second interview for 2022. A subscriber reached out to me and suggested Ruth as a guest. I really enjoyed my conversation with this textile artist. She was so generous with her process. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. So grab your sewing and a cup of tea. Enjooy

I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. Thank you Karen. As an Australian I totally understand what Ruth means when she talks about the grey/green colours of the gum trees. But they change too. They can be red, orange, blue/green, silver grey to green - so many different shades. They're not bright leaf green as many northern hemisphere trees. So unique. I too love the native flora (and fauna).

I love textile dyeing. I took a class on fiber reactive dyes and I was hooked. There are so many things you can do from immersion dyeing to tray dyeing, print paste fabric painting...there are so many options. It is an art in and of itself.

@@jedberg7244 Any fabric I have dyed has usually gone through at least 3 cycles in the wash. If using fiber reactive dyes (that's what I use) they should not bleed and can be cared for like any other cotton fabric.

Beautiful woman and work, presented well by you. Thank you for introducing her to me. I popped over to her website and see that she has deep and joyous faith. I encourage you to probe your interviewees about their sources of inspiration - and if faith is a source, let them talk about it. I'm probably not the only one of your fans that would love to hear about it. Think how many of us prayed for your son :>) Ruth has worked out a way to express her faith subtly and gorgeously. It would be interesting to know how she arrived at that.

We have one quilt shop here that does not carry solids, prints with bugs, prints with spiders, prints with snakes and lizards ; because, the owner of the shop doesn't like solids, bugs, spiders, snakes or lizards. When I ask her if she was ever going to offer solids? Her answer was, "Why would you want solids when you can use beautiful prints? The only way to get certain colors here is to dye fabric yourself. Many patterns require solids.

Dear Karen, I enjoy and learn so much from the interviews! So this is my list of request interviews. 1. Quilt fabric. What is the difference buying QF from a Quilt store vs a chain store all purpose sewing shop? 2. Quilt fabric designers ??? Who are they and how do they interphase with manufacturers? 3. Who are the quilt fabric manufacturers….where is the fabric manufactured? I do purchase Moda, Bella etc. Hope this gives you some ideas. Is your head hurting!? Blessings Susan North Carolina USA

Snow dyeing is a blast!

@noplacelikehome9116 2 жыл бұрын

@@jedberg7244 You take a large container (like a Rubbermade tote) and put a rack of some kind in it to keep your fabric from laying in the bottom. Bunch up your fabric on the rack. Put a heaping load of snow on the fabric and then sprinkle dry dye powder on it. You can use different colors or just one, it's up to you. As the snow melts, it separates the dye colors out of the powder and they blend onto the fabric. If you use orange dye, for example, you may get orange, pink and even some yellow color from it. Purples are neat to see blend into their basic color components. It's kind of like when a black marker bleeds onto fabric and you see purple instead of plain black. When the snow has all melted, you rinse the fabric and have a custom, one of a kind piece of fabric. Very cool!

WOW -- wow, wow, WOW! I am no where near the limit -- far, far, FAAARR less in pushing any boundaries. I'm lucky if I can come close to any of the most minor of "strict rules of quilting" that I grew up with. How "in fear" should one live of getting hand dyed fabric wet and it just bleeding everywhere?

Think you will have to email Ruth. Her website is a bit obscure. I am doing her gum blossom BOM (3 blocks to go) & I have not found any information on her site about continuing access to the BOM for new subscribers. She said in this interview that she will issue a new pattern this year (2022), not as a BOM though, so I assume those of us on her email list will be notified & it should be on her site. Her designs are beautiful & it is a very enjoyable process ….
