Fiber has always been a part of my life. A chance encounter with a young woman who had come back from China, where she taught English, started me on the dye path. In order to engage the children, she showed them how to tie dye. All the left over dyes needed to be used. A marathon dye weekend was the answer. Each piece of white fabric became a glorious rainbow of color. I was hooked. How could you not love the serendipitous nature of dyeing. No matter how many techniques I learn, it is always the color that seduces me and entreats me to come back time and time again.
