Plum Goody Update

Greetings All,
Last summer I dyed a piece of vintage lace tablecloth with Rit Ambergine powder dye.  I fell in love with the color and yesterday I created a waterfall vest out of this gorgeous piece and had to share it.

Libration Color Collection - jacket.

Greeting All,
Here is another creation from my "Libration Color" collection.  This is a waterfall jacket created with Kona cottons created from log cabin blocks with slash pocket.  In the center of each block is an Adinkra symbol the focus on the principles of Kwanzaa.

Plum Goody Vest

Greetings All,
Here is a spinoff from my "Plum Goody" jacket, a waterfall vest.  This was  created with my hand dyed cotton, batiks, African  wax print, and quilters cottons.  I love the colors and I love the drape and just had to share.

This week will be the opening of "And Still We Rise" Oct 6 - Dec 30, 2017 at the Columbus Museum, Columbus, GA.  This would not have been possible without the hard work and determination of Dr. Carolyn Mazloomi a "Shero" of the culture.  I am grateful to be included and to be a member of WCQN.  This has been an amazing journey.
