Natural dye is a technique that I am very interested in and want to use it for my further projects. It’s is a very good chance to try it in sustainable system class with all the directions. I used blueberries for my wool and muslin samples and purple cabbage for my tied dye samples. 

I went to the greenmarket at Union square ，a place that I often visit after school.  The market only open on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I bought blueberries, cabbage and some flowers from three different spots. I prefer the sellers that sell less categories. 

The most exciting part during the dying process is to see how the color changed by adding different mordants. Those mordants gives more possibilities of natural dye, and it allows designers create diverse samples.
