I'm really into eco dye & print recently. The white cotton shirt after years got some stains but quality is still good.
一件有黃點的白襯衣, 質料尚佳 , 棄之可惜, 不如用我環保手藝做點改變....
Am I mean or advocate eco-friendly? I made a change with leaf prints.
With iron mordanted, leaves of rose, eucalyptus and oak mottled on cotton shirt by bundle steamed for an hour.
Still cool ???!!!

This same old white shirt recalls my days in Lake District in 2006 I attended a congregation ceremony of my friend's daughter in Cambridge. After it, I traveled to Lake District - picturesque it is ........

Dusk of Bownese
All the lakes are tranquil and stunning in any time. After some years my shirt has some stains but Lake District is still as it is hundreds years.
The shirt can be wore for some more years, the oak leaves from California printed on the shirt are good memory of my days picking leaves with Melinda.
My cat Mogi is same old - curious and naugty !
