I have been experimenting with eco-dyeing for a couple of years and I have blogged about it a couple of times before here - Eco-dyeing - the magical absorbing art
but it has been my absolute privilege to recently be involved in a global eco-dyeing project - How Far Does the Hand Reach - "The Peace Cloth" - which has been exhibited in Norwich, England recentlhy as part of a bigger exhibition, Botanical Signatures, by Maria Clarke-Wilson.
103 eco-dyers from 28 countries around the world contributed silk squares eco-dyed with their local plants, and these were sewn together by Maria according to their location in the world into this huge piece you can see in the pictures below.
