Several times over the years, I've dipped into Indigo vats made by friends and tutors and one summer I even made a vat in the garden. I've been promising myself I'd do that again and each summer since then seems to slip by without the lovely blues that are indigo. (that is indigo??)
Well, this has been the year of no excuses! No holiday club bookings, in fact, no holiday.
So
I finally did my vat. In fact I did several. I tried the 123
fermentation method, I tried the ferrous ferment and I tried the quick
and easy prereduced indigo and spectralite. I loved them all!
Now, I have great stock of blues to see me through a winter of stitching!
