My first gradation swap

With DD and myself fighting colds and me having had 3 classes to teach and doctor's appointments to go to, I didn't have time to post a picture of my first gradation swap, but here it is. It is so much fun to see all of the different colors come in. The next swap I'm waiting for is the "make purple". It'll be neat to see how different the swatches will look like for that.

Dye swaps for Dye Hard Run-off

The lighting was a bit funky while I was taking pictures and the batteries on my camera are running low, so the pictures aren't the best quality, but you can get an idea of what the swaps are about. The first swap was a half-step color gradation using #65 Raspberry from Dharma and the second swap is a make purple using #65 Raspberry from Dharma again and #22 Cobalt Blue, also from Dharma. On the make purple I had to lighten the photo in my editing system so much that the writing on my white cardstock is disappearing, but at least the colors look more true to what they look like in person and not just like black pieces of fabric. lol Both swaps are on their way to the swap hostesses.
