It is quite ingenious the way you make patterns. It seems like an expanded approach from shibori in that the process is based on the dimensional transformation and mastering of dye permeation. But, it's much simpler and is amazingly effective! I have two of your books which I admire for the clear organization of material. --Yoshiko I. Wada, Berkeley, CA This video is a valuable expansion of the influential and pioneering book, Color By Accident. Clear and informative, this video is a great addition to any library. ---Elin Noble, New Bedford, MA I brought Ann s DVD home and spent several very happy hours watching and learning. This is one of the best overviews of dyeing I ve seen, and I am to try some of the techniques. ---Vivika DeNegre, editor Quilting Arts Magazine.
