Dyeing fabric that is folks! I spent Saturday over the dye pot. I dyed some blue/purple, some red/purple, some red, some yellow, and some blue…all colors I will need for upcoming Christmas season wall hangings and ornaments.
Now I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of more wool to dye some light grays for the winter skies I hook.
Finished hooking an altocumulus prairie sky wall hanging.
I am contemplating these Christmas cards. Seems my photos are not in the right colour mode for printing, and I have no idea how to get them there. I may end up having to go to a professional photographer for photos after all. Too bad as some of the photos are of work I already sold. No way to get new photos of those!
I have put a new wool cutter on my wish list for my birthday and Christmas this year. Probably will end up buying it myself, but just maybe my family will take sympathy on me. It will cost $600 plus shipping.
What color mode do you need? A lot of times you can quickly convert the files in photoshop. I have done it before for business clients.
I need it for printing. I think it’s called CMYK ?
You can convert the file in Photoshop if you know someone who has it. If you don’t, I have no problem doing it and emailing the file straight back to you. It would only take me a couple of minutes to do. My guess is the file you have is currently a jpeg in RGB.
If you need help let me know.

Deb I have an old version of Photoshop (8.0), and you are correct. it is a jpg in RGB. Can I do it from this end? Email me at if you don’t want to explain here.
At the top of the program go into “image”, then go into “mode” and choose “cmyk” and save. Save it as a new file with cmyk in the name to make your like easier down the road (personal experience ! LOL!)
Easy peasy!
Deb, my version of PS does not have the option cmyk under mode. It has bitmap, grayscale, indexed colour, and RGB
I decided to update my version of Photoshop Elements to version 12. Will let you know how that works for me. 🙂
I hope it does the trick!
