These colors are the most beautiful ever created, and certainly the most beautiful artistic media for use by any textile artist today. "I believe in the extraordinary luminosity of my art. Using these colors automatically qualifies your work as museum quality." - Cheryl, 2008 (note: many pieces woven, knit, or otherwise constructed of her colours have been displayed in museums and galleries throughout the world.)

These incredible examples of the Art of Natural dyework can only be experienced in all their love and glory in the actual 120 color chart, with 8" samples of each colour.

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING about the dyework I do for you: Your color will be as close as humanly and artistically possible to my standard for that number. Expect some abrajz, that is, variegation. This is usually most characteristic of greens.

(Please note: Differences in monitor settings may misrepresent the colors presented on this page. The names, however, are excellent descriptors.)
