Here is a pic (not very good as it was taken with tablet) of my recent dyed thread. The variegated did not turn out as nice as I wanted as I did not saturate fully with dye - just enough to give color. The rust looking one is a mix of a couple colors I had left over. Next week I hope to do about 10 more colors, I hope I will be caught up with this project and then can turn my attention to others and then start dying some thread to bring to tat days.

Tat Days Registration and Thread Colors
First, Tat Days registration has opened. Lots of nice classes. Look forward to attending again.
Second, I have found out I have 96 different colors of Size 20 thread. Not enough different colors to finish my project I have been working on. So I got out my dyes and proceeded to dye 10 more different colors (10 yards each). Will post a pic when they have been washed. I may stop after this and wait until I have a final confirmation of people attending the event. Finally seeing light at end of tunnel. I have so many other projects to get going on.
