GD: Ionian Sea hemp indio

This hempy was initially supposed to have a tiny strip of light pink along one rail, but it was rather impossible to keep it pinky-pink with the tide of blues that were following. So the very lovely mama decided to have it all blue.
But blue in three variations: turquoise, teal/caribbean and navy blue.
After much struggling with stubborn turquoise that would keep coming out too pale, I`ve managed to create a real Ionian Sea for Mari (who chose the name herself, and right so, as the Ionian Sea I remember from my travels does have such shades!)

Another request was to have the tapers covered completely in navy so there is no gradation showing on them.
Hempy is in its` home now and will hopefully be loved!
