Two lovely ornaments. The second one look a little like a Christmas Jumper design!

They are beautiful! Your hand dyed linen is very pretty. Was it hard to do? It is perfect for the project. Well done!

Hi Mary! Is really fun to dye fabric. I used a brand called dylon dyes and I watch some videos on youtube (https://www.youtube.com/user/DylonMalaysia/videos). Thank you!
