Harvesting late summer dye flowers make for a beautiful way to create colorful designs with an easy bundle dye process. The Color Farm grows many of the dyer's favorite blooms including cosmos, coreopsis, marigold and pincushion. Simply scattering the petals on a piece of textile and steaming will produce vivid organic color to love well into the autumn season. This tutorial will show around The Color Farm's dye flower bounty and how to make an abstract eco-print by bundle dyeing.
