About this Product
Ice-dyed for magical one-of-a-kind patterns in bright colors. These will definitely brighten up every room!
Cotton pillow covers fit over a 20x20" insert or can be stuffed with Poly-fil. Pillows/inserts not included. These are a lightweight, smooth cotton with a hidden top zipper, so either side can be displayed.
The colors stay well and they are a welcome addition to any room.
The cost is for one cover, though I have dyed three in case someone wants a pair or more. They look great together.
Once one is purchased, I cannot replicate a perfect match, even using the same 4-6 colors. The pictures show they have been dyed in the same tub, but some colors might dominate one case over the other.
The covers have been washed in hot water to get out the excess dye, and I iron them to best show the patterns.
Care instructions: Wash in cold water, then machine dry. Light ironing is optional.
Ice-dyeing is not tie-dyeing. The fabric can be folded, twisted, laid out, and basically manipulated many ways to create unique freeform patterns. Each item has different design elements.
Ice-dyeing gives each piece a unique flow of colors that delights the eye. Everyone sees something new— a Monet painting, an outer-space asteroid, a floral design. The more you look, the more images you see in each piece. I love working with color and don’t subscribe to the idea that certain colors only go with other colors—I create my own possibilities.
Custom dyeing is available for 20% above the purchase price. I can use a requested color scheme, but cannot guarantee the outcome.
Patt711
Meet the Maker
My name is Patt, spelled with 2 t's because I like to stand out from the many Patricias and Pats in this world.
Creating new, colorful art suits my multi-tasking lifestyle.
Born in San Francisco and raised on the Peninsula, I found knitting, then weaving as "indoor sports" after moving to the coast and experiencing summer’s heavy coastal fog.
Vivid colors and textures drive my work as a textile designer. I consider myself eclectic — I knit, weave, felt, dye, and design and create jewelry. My passion is blending colors and textures into jewelry and textile designs while not following rules and doing the expected. I strive for wearable art pieces - my works are one of a kind. I create unusual pieces and prefer being ahead of the crowd rather than part of it.
Ice-dyeing led me to dye textiles for fashion designers. My work has sold in stores and at craft shows 4 to 5 times a year. I love the in-person selling, but like many artists, the pandemic forced me online, which has been a bonus because now I have new customers from all over the country.
I started online as Patt711 on Etsy and success encouraged me to add GoImagine.com with its new give-back concept. If you live in or visit the SF Bay Area around Thanksgiving, I also participate in Open Studios in November and that information can be found on our website: www.colonyofcoastsideartists.com
I hope you enjoy my art as much as I do creating it.
