Celebrating Natural Dyeing with ColorStorms

Dear Spinning Circle, Today. On Wool n’ Spinning Radio. Rebecca and I had the pleasure of sitting down with Rebecca’s mom, Linda Jennings, the dyer and curator of Color Storms. She is based in Maryland, USA, and created a small dye studio in her home. Specializing in natural dyeing, Linda creates amazing gradient sets, plays with various dye stuffs that she is able to harvest locally, while also using some extract powders to be able to dye the variety of colours available to us in nature. Her enthusiasm for natural dyeing, natural fibres and creativity is infectious. It was a pleasure to talk with her, hearing about her journey and enjoying some time together. I hope you enjoy our conversation. Find the original show notes here, along with photographs of Linda's fleece packs spun up. The Fleece Packs that Rebecca and I have been spinning for the Year of Colour 2023, are all showcased here in the web shop.
