silk dyeing-pole wrapping-shibori

I've been on a roll with my quilting but I've also been having loads of fun with my color-hue dyes and silk[dharmatrading.com]. I just added more dyed scarves to my inventory ;-) technique was pole wrapping - shibori style. So here are photo's of some of the process.

Now back to my quilting... ;-) Enjoy.
