MY PRIZE

My door prize from GFFI--a Jenkins Kuchulu. If you are not familiar with this, it is a very small handmade Turkish style spindle. Mine is done in pistachio wood and is about 2.5 inches tall. It is the perfect take along spindle. I am not much of a spindle spinner any more but am trying. Here I am spinning some Chasing Rainbows silk that I purchased from Celia Quinn at a guild workshop.

COTTON SHIBORI

I started this project last summer at GGFI and got it into one dip in the Indigo vat. First resist was a fold and tie dye and now am stitching it for a different resist pattern. Ultimately this will end up back in the Indigo pot. My freeze dried Indigo arrived from Morgaine the other day, so I need to finish this up as it may be destined for Christmas giving.
