Variegated

My friend D, who is visiting from Queensland, loves silk ribbon embroidery. She and I have had lots of fun over the years trying to achieve variegated colours in hand-dyed silk ribbons for her to use.

So this tulip photo is for D: The challenge in dyeing ribbons is to get just enough variation in the colour. It looks as though whoever designed these beautiful tulips was having fun experimenting too.
