Yay! I was moving things around in my living room and found the laminated prefelt samples I did in Pam de Groot's class last summer! The bag of samples had fallen down behind a book case. When I was unpacking from my teaching trip to Bellingham, I must have put the bag on top of the book case and it was somehow knocked off behind. I'm happy. The only problem is, the colors are totally different than the ones I used in my new set of samples. My new samples were dyed with Jacquard Acid dyes and the old ones were dyed with Landscape dyes. I really couldn't remember what the original prefelt colors looked like exactly so I went with a totally different colorway in the new prefelts.
I am going to need to make more laminated prefelts to make the vest. Now, hard decision, which colorway should I use? I have ordered some Landscape dyes in what I think are the colors we used last summer. I don't think I could replicate these colors using the Jacquards that I have and since the colors are mixed, I don't think I could mix them exactly either. More experimentation!
