Pomegranate


THIS +THIS =????



This is my quick project for today....
My son ate a pomegranate for breakfast and I asked him to save me his leftover bits.
(Many of you are pros at this but for me it is a new adventure.) 
wish me luck!

  5. Hi Woman with wings,

    Right before Christmas my son went grocery shopping with me and asked for the pomegranate. Of course he picked the biggest one! lol! He dropped a few seeds while eating it and I saw how much they stained what ever they hit so I decided that it was the perfect dye.
    I think the pomegranate is interesting because I have seen it used in many ancient textiles. I used it in a tree of life quilt piece. (will have to show that one.) : )

  6. Hi Gina,

    I am not even sure what I will use the fabric for. I just thought while I had the opportunity to dye the fabric with the pomegranate I should do it.
    I will come up with some idea...lol!

  7. Hi Suzanna,

    I think dying is like Forest Gump says, "Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know which one you are going to get" or something like that.
    lol! Thanks : )

  9. HI Deanna 7 Trees,

    I wish I had a great big piece of linen because I think my results would have been more striking....Instead I just used a piece of Kona muslin. I am also thinking I should have thrown in more small snippets of different fabrics, but I was in such a hurry as usual...

    The pomegranate is such a beautiful rich color it makes it easy to photograph. : )
