Great colors today! Basic traditional design, but instead of starting with a white egg, I dyed the goose egg with Pysanky Showcase Golden Yellow. After waxing all the beginning design lines, I washed the egg back down to white for a few details, then green, orange, pink, peacock blue, purple, and red. Final color was black. I'm happy with how it turned out - it looks like kente cloth to me. What do you think?
This photo comes from Exploring Africa - check it out - lots of very cool pictures of kente cloth patterns.
Okay, so here are a few more photos for your perusal. Happy Friday!
Scale object is a nickel this week - everything costs more these days!
