Metamorphosis: Tales of Fulling and Flowers

from Rumpel and the Frog · host Rumpel and the Frog

In this episode, we explore two amazing types of transformation.  First, we investigate and practice the process of fulling:  intentionally shrinking cloth for a thicker, denser result.  Rumpel has the most amazing swatches and processes to share. So many, in fact, that you may want to keep your show notes open in order to see all the before-and-after images that she discusses.  Plus, Frog tells some Greco-Roman flower myths.  Did you know that the Daffodil, Crocus, and Hyacinths that you love to see blooming this time of year are all that remain of youth and beauty attributed to some famous young men of Greek myth?  Tune in to explore these tales of transformation, our works in progress, the projects that are providing us with springtime inspiration, and so much more.
