I love, love indigo dyed fabric and found this wonder piece at the International Folk Art Market in Santa Fe last year. So I've looked at it, and petted it, and finally got up the nerve to cut it and make it into a wearable tunic. As you can see, I just Had to do something else to it, so did some hand stitching on the bodice, pockets and sleeves. The second photo shows the pockets.
I saved every little bit of the leftover fabric and will use it in some other work. Indigo is precious.
Really truly beautiful Collins. I want to hear more about indigo when we next meet!
