Week 31 - Tinted Chain

This block was chosen to represent this quote:

"The fact is women are in chains and their servitude is all the more debasing because they do not realize it." Susan B. Anthony, 1872

 

I used a shibori hand dye by Vicki Welsh along with a pale yellow solid and very very dark green print.  The original version of this block used two different fabrics where the shibori is, in alternating horizontal rows.  I used two different striped areas and alternated the direction of the stripes.
