Amaryllis Bundle

My amaryllis bloomed: 4 lovely red flowers. Two were fading, and I plucked them from the plant.
My finger turned red, and I wondered........hmmm........maybe........why not?

 placed onto beige, brushed cotton







 adding white cotton




 folding over....oh, there's some colour already......a rich, blue-red

rolled up into a mini bundle

dampened and zipped into a bag

 day 2......wow!........colour!

gently unrolled

adding flower #3

the bundle has been rolled and zipped, and awaits flower #4

the next flower should be ready tomorrow







I wonder:
how much colour will 4 flowers create?
will it spread through all the fabric layers?
will the colour be permanent?
fade when washed?
be bleached by sunlight?
has anyone else done this?
The experiment continues.........

Thanks for visiting.
