Dyeing with mint leaves



Wool roving dyed with mint leaves. 


A silk tank top dyed with mint leaves after a long soak in alum water. The white cotton thread I used to sew the top didn't pick up the dye.


An organic cotton jersey tunic dyed with mint leaves and dip dyed in iron water.


Through the woods


On the second day in Deming, we went to the river. Walking through the woods was another highlight of the trip.

On the path

Green, shady and cool 
Fallen leaves, twigs and shdows

Leafy

A bridge!
