Since we are not allowed to visit and see the new babies for a while, I had to make something for them instead. The choise was easy, since they only wear body suits. They are in a preemie size so it was not easy to turn them into spirals. Afterwords I found out that I very well could have divided the spiral into eight parts to dye - four for each color instead of two. You learn as long as you live, they say... They got some pattern after all. They are dyed with Procion MX, a wonderful dye for cotton. Since I am working on a rather large piece (timeconsuming!) it's fun to do a little other creative stuff now and then.
Ettersom vi ikke får besøke eller se tvillingene på en stund, så laget jeg noe til de. Siden de bare bruker bodyer for tiden, så var valget enkelt. De er i prematur størrelse, så det var ikke helt enkelt å snurre de i spiraler. Jeg fant ut etterpå at jeg kunne godt ha delt spiralen inn i åtte felt for farge - fire av hver, istedet for to av hver. Men man lærer så lenge man lever, sier de... De fikk allikevel noe mønster. De er farget med Procion MX, en kjemeflott farge for bomull. Siden jeg arbeider på et ganske stort bilde (tidkrevende!) så er det moro å gjøre noe annet kreativt innimellom.
