I see many natural dyers saying they don't use chemicsls in their dyeing.
What they actually mean is that tjey don't use synthetic chemicals in their dyeing , or at least that is what I hope they mean!
Not all natural chemicals are safe to use. Please take care whenever you are using chemicals.

Would you try this recipe? Do you think it would work??

I love reading old recipes, I have quite a collection, so I thought I'd start sharing some - what do you think?

It's a long while since I updated my "Colours of the ...Bayeux Tapestry" definitely need some reds dyeing up ...

Looking pretty good so far!

I think I must have a reputation for loving historical textile books - particularly spinning and dyeing! These 2 books were given to me by the owner of the local dyehouse where I have work space.
What is the Bradford system? - I'll need to read and report back!

BBC4 is re-showing "A Stitch in Time" with Amber Butchart | Fashion & Textile Historian. We had great fun recreating the beautiful green of the Arnolfini dress.
Of course I insisted on stale urine be added ...!

The first episode is available on iplayer now.
The dress was recreated by Ninya Mikhaila

The whole series was fab!

A Stitch in Time is being repeated on BBC4 at the moment (started yesterday)
Episode 2 - The Arnolfini Portrait was great fun, and yes we got the correct green!

Fusing biography, art and the history of fashion, Amber Butchart explores the lives of historical figures through the clothes they wore.
