I’ve mainly been making more sleeves :( :( :( I’m satisfied with my short-sleeve pattern now, but I want to make a long sleeve too, so I’ve been testing some of them. One day I will be done with making sleeve muslins, but that day is not today.

I did make some patchwork though, from leftover scraps of muslin (white cotton poplin) that I dyed. This is going to be a cushion cover once I decide whether to do the same again for the other side or to do something different.

The deep pink in the middle is the result of my first attempt at getting a good low-immersion purple (as you can see, it was a complete failure in terms of the actual goal, though quite interesting in itself), and subsequent attempts radiate out from there, to the purple in the corners that’s basically what I was aiming for.

A 9 by 9 grid of sewn-together fabric squares in variegated purples, pinks, and blues. The colours radiate out from a bright pink central square through lighter pinks to darker pinks to dark blue (where I overshot in trying to make it less pink) and finally a true purple in the corners.
