\"\"id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280647131426154610\"<\/a>Look what arrived in the post today! I purchased some Colourstreams<\/a> hand dyed wool felt. It was rather difficult choosing from their website, because the only colour preview they give you is of their thread skeins. It is extremely difficult to imagine how that translates into hand dyed fabric. <\/p>\n

Thread and fabric are different! One is linear and the other is a flat surface…<\/p>\n

Anyway, I was pleased with the pinky-yellow one. It was about what I was expecting. The blue-green one was basically what I expected, though I really would like them to add a more baby blue colour scheme to their range. The purpley one was not at all what I was expecting. On the thread sample for that colour (fuschia) it was pinky-purple. Well, that’s not what turned up at all. Not sure what happened to the pink…<\/p>\n

For reasonably expensive bits of fabric, it was a little disappointing, but I suppose that’s what you get for having to choose over the internet.<\/p>\n

I’d really love for Colourstreams to have a better system of choosing swatches for the fabrics on their website. Previews of *fabric* would be nice. Its probably a lot of work for them, and that’s why they’re not doing it, but gee, it would be a bit more helpful for the customer.<\/p>\n

I am sure that I will have fun using them, they’re just not quite what I expected!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
