DIPDay become an success, even if the weather was really bad. Heavy rain friday and saturday, even thow, lots of visitors came to see and discover the beauty of natural dyeing. We had an informative exhibition about colours and different techniques.

We dyed ladys stockings, yarn, mother of pearl buttons and leather. Our Mayor of the Municipality came and visited and appreciated our DIPDay. Two more dyers participated, Sissel (53)was working with natural plants and cochenille, our grand old lady Martha 83 years old had the responsibility of the blue pots- Indigo and Brazilia and I (54) was showing mushroom dyeing. Robert (47) was demonstrating spinning wool on his wheel. In the gallery we served coffee and waffles for the visitors.
Everybody was asking: Will this also happend next year? We answered: We hope so. Thank you to everyone that came and to the helpers and dyers.

All the best from mr. Trond E and Mr. Robert in Norway at Natthagen gallery
