New hand dyed thread "Raspberry Sorbet"


A new dye batch just added to my Etsy shop has bright raspberry and other red to pink shades in it. I wanted something almost as intense as some flowers I've noticed recently, such as these shrub roses. I like the results, and I think it's a keeper!

    Thanks, everyone! About my Etsy shop: I'll need to be "Digital Only" for a few days (since I won't be able to ship packages temporarily), but the hand dyed thread will be back on July 8.
