Bundle dyed Ahimsa silk was the inspiration, which forms the upper front part and sleeves. To use the whole pieces dyed, I decided on the bat sleeve format. I followed the pink/gold tones to match with the lining starting point (a large blouse). I made a feature of the bundle dyed areas to highlight the green and pink tones by embroidering over with Triskel symbol outlines and abstract roses. More bundle dyed Habotai silk with many-toned lilac and gold layers used on bottom fronts. Lilac patches are blackberry dyed and may fade to pink over time.
