May I make a suggestion, when you mordent your cotton, see what happens if you keep it moist until you dye it versus if you let it dry. If memory serves. You will notice a difference
@@ginninadances thanks for the tip (and for watching). I thought you could mordant a stack ahead of time and keep it for a couple of weeks?…need more experimentation! Are you into dyeing too?
Thanks for watching. You can use dry or fresh leaves. Mine were partly dried. It's fun to experiment with the same materials, some dry and some fresh and see if you get the same results. Let me know how youe get on...
I liked the diary that you are keeping of each plant and trial. Such a good idea! A dyers grimore.😊
I just added some more pages this morning. Maybe I’ll do a flip through video soon.
