Crack

Here is the last dye application. Before I put it on, I ran cold water over it to make the wax harder, then I bent and crinkled it so the wax would get cracks. Putting this dye on, I rubbed it in with a latex gloved hand to work the dye into the cracks. It's the part of batik that I really like, but I didn't crack it as much as I would like--not everyone likes it as much.




Dave has his first carrot harvest. They are pretty good. The tomatoes are unbelievable!
