Part of my Dorothy collection, so named as the quilting was done by Dorothy Carveth in the 1970s. Repurposed into this Janis coat, with fur collar and cuffs and two exterior pockets. 5 blue and cream pearlescent buttons close this beauty. Such fun.
Moss is 5"8 and she wears a size medium/large. Vintage jeans and cardigan by Horse and Snake Vintage.
Made during my time as artist in residence at Kootenay School of Arts, at Selkirk College.

Naturally dyed with plants
All my socks and scrunchies are naturally dyed - which is a 4 day process. Each natural fibre needs to be scoured on day one, and then treated with a mordant the next day. Then its plant dyeing time, which usualy takes a couple more days!
Each dye bath can be used a number of times, giving lighter and lighter shades until it is exhausted. Then the spent plants end up in my compost. Plant dyeing saves water and says a big no thank you to synthetic nasties that pollute waterways.
