I am working on a new product that will be ready for sale by August 1st of this year! It is the first in a series of workbooks that will lead the beginning dyer through the process of hand dyeing cotton fabric. It can be used at the same time you take my Quilt University (http://www.quiltuniversity.com) course called Cotton Dyeing Basics, or you can use it separately without the course.
We cover full immersion dyeing for solid colors, partial immersion dyeing for mottled colors, gradation dyeing, dyeing the spectrum, and over dyeing. It is a five lesson course and has a few tips and bonus lessons not found on the online course. Other features will be discussed later but these days I am spending my time collecting pictures and re-shooting new ones.
I'll keep you posted as to the progress of the workbook. It goes out next week to my editor!
Cheers!

Best wishes for the progress of the workbook at the editors. Fingers and toes crossed...even whilst typing
That is great, wish you all the best. I will definitely get one, - in August you say!! Have already marked it on my calendar.
Thanks, my pals! I'm pretty excited about it. I enjoy writing and seeing something that I just "do" come to life on a page. Putting the pictures and instructions together is very satisfying. Everytime I write a new class for Quilt University and Carol edits it and sends it back I am thrilled to see the whole package. Once I copy it and hold it in my hands it's a weird and wonderful thing to be able hold and SEE stuff that once was only in my head!!! Kind of a cool existential thing-an affirming thing.
Can't wait, Marjie. It sounds great. Keep us posted. Helen
Marjie,
As a student who can't live without you anymore, I am thrilled that you are putting it all together in one place for me to hold n my hand. Every time I start printing out the class instruction and discussion for your classes, my husband stops breathing. Since I kinda like the guy, now I can tell him it's all in a book and I just NEED to buy it!
Thanks for what you "see" in your head!
