Thank you so much for everything you are sharing, clearly explaining and inspiring us all with! What a kind, creative, caring and gentle woman, Kathryn!
Thank you so much Belinda ☺️
Absolutely lovely and inspiring! I also love the small details in the videos like the mended sleeve, the adorable tongs and the bachground cloths which I can already see being used in future projects ❤
Ah yes, my mended sleeve. This is a charity shop cardigan that I have had for about 12 years and when Stella was a puppy, she gnawed a chunk out of the sleeve. 😁♥️
I think that's fantastic. It adds a story to a piece of clothing
This really felt like watching magic happen. Incredibly beautiful and interesting, thank you once again!!🍀💖
My pleasure Machteld, it is indeed like magic, every time. ♥️
That scarf is simply beautiful
I enjoyed this video so much, thank you. Everything shown and explained so thoroughly. The results are lovely, especially the silk scarf which is beautiful. I can hardly wait to have a go.
Kathryn this episode has been so interesting. A BIG thankyou. The chiffon scarf was so beautiful. I Will definitely be trying this out on my return home. You are so very generous with your time and gentleness. I have a big bag of onion skins that I collected at the supermarket, as you say, the shop were very happy that I tidied up the onion rack 😊
Oh my Kathryn! I never would have thought onion skins would dye so beautifully. And so many hues! Thank you for your generosity in sharing your knowledge ❤ I hope you enjoyed your mom visiting. Ha ve a beautiful weekend. Sally Jo
Thank you we had a lovely day ❤️
Thank you for the most informative and easy to grasp natural dyeing video I've seen. The outcome pieces are all so gorgeous! I didn't see any undulation of color on them except for the beautiful scarf of course. That is an easy way to ecoprint. Had you not shown us every step i never would have guessed that each the fabrics was soaked ONLY in red or brown onion skins. I'm definitely inspired, thank you so much!
Thank you I am happy you liked it. The range of shades you get from natural dyes, even the humble onion skin is fascinating. ❤️

I love the way you teach… it’s nice to hear the soft and kind voice of you… thank you very much❣️
Love the variety of beautiful colors you got Kathryn! and the sting marks! I love to hand quilt on the lines. Thank you for sharing your dye process. 💙
The depth and range of those colours are beautiful.... really sumptuous! So much better than the "flat" results from commercial dyes. Thank you, I loved this video!
Thank you so much! 😊
Thank you for your time once again Kathryn. I have done a bit of eco dying and printing over the years but evertime I watch a anything about the subject I learn something new. Have a great weekend.
At last! Someone with my thinking on “a waste of time doing dyeing with substances that are going to be fugitive” 😉
I so enjoyed watching this video…. I could feel your passion oozing through every minute!
🥰🥰🥰
Wonderful and informative video. I have done some eco dying but you have given alot of great tips! Love your results!
Thank you Jayne ☺️
Wonderful video.My husband sat down with a cup of tea and stayed watching to the end. I've dyed my spun wool many times but not tried fabrics. I feel inspired to have a go. Many Thanks
OMG the scarf is beautiful ❤️ the colors, the string marks, the string! Love it
Thank you so much for this wonderful video on dyeing with onion peals.
I'm new to eco dying and can't wait to learn more.
I would love to see your process using leaves and other natural materials.
Thank you k3n!!!
My pleasure, I will definitely make more videos as the year progresses. ♥️
Everything you do just fascinates me. I have to go Thrifting to look for some wool, silk and or chiffon.
That scoff is absolutely gorgeous
I must say one of my favorite things was seeing how you darned your jumper/sweater. I was so intrigued it’s quite beautiful.
Thank you, that's a patch darn. Stella chewed it when she was a puppy. 😁 More visible mending videos are planned. ❤️
I love your instructional videos so much. I just found your channel in January when you started your weekly slow stitching project. You have inspired this beginner that you don’t need fancy or expensive tools to create beautiful things. Thank you for sharing your knowledge so patiently and thoroughly. Watching your videos is my hour of peacefulness away from the noise of daily life.
Hello Wanda, thank you that makes me so happy 😊
Very informative. I use the method for my wood basket weaving. Onion skins work very well for that.
That's interesting, I have seen basket makers use plant dyes for their materials and it's beautiful ❤️
Oh my. I have fallen in love with this process. I would absolutely wear that piece
Excellent video, very informative and inspiring. Thank you! 🥰
Such beautiful colours - especially at the end when you laid them out all together. Stunning 😍😊
Great information, thank you! Love how slow and peaceful you are!
Your results are beautiful. Thanks for showing your process. I know what I am trying this weekend. 😊
Have fun 😁
I loved this beautiful meditative gift of yours. The silks and wools are gorgeous.
Thank you so much 😊
My first time meeting you. Thank you so much! I am going to visit with my daughter next month... you have given me wonderful ideas for us to try. We spend our visits trying new creative things.
Hello Jackie, lovely to meet you ❤️ I hope you and your daughter have a wonderful time together 😊
Oh my goodness I loved all the different variations in colour you got, and that silk scarf is so beautiful! I’ve been saving onion skins to do some yarn dyeing but might have to try some protein cloth first. Thanks very much for the tutorial ❤
My pleasure, thank you ☺️
All the fabric is beautiful but the Echo print is outstanding I’m going to give it a go
Thank you, I am wearing the piece in my hair right now 😁❤️
Thankyou Kathryn for showing me a new way to look at art. I have many ideas whirling around in my head right now. I am in Costa Rica and are now rapidly approaching our winter aka rainy season. I’ll be spending a lot of time indoors soon and getting to work on all the wonderful ideas that are spinning in my mind. Keep going and keep inspiring people to step out of the box and try something new.
My pleasure and I will keep going, thank you so much ❤️

I have to say I am flabbergasted by this video 🙀. You are definitely never too old to learn something new lol. I can’t wait to try these dying techniques. I would have never thought of onion skins for dying fabric. I have always used tea but I believe this video has opened up a whole new world for me.

Oooo, I loved this video.Thank you so much, Kathryn. Onion soup for tea and then some alchemical fun.
Sounds perfect ❤️
Thank you for the wonderful tutorial. Im definitely saving my onion skins from now on. The silk takes the colour beautifully. And the eco dyed scarf is exceptional. As you say it would make a stunning head scarf. I feel very inspired.
So interesting. I have been saving onion skins to do some dying.
Thank you for your share !I learned nature stuff to color martial marginally very interesting ❤ ❤❤
Those are all so beautiful! Thank you I can't wait to try this 🤍
Thank you have fun 😊
So, so interesting. Can’t wait to try it. When you were taking off the skins, it looked like our Australian outback. Wonderful. Thank you so much.
My pleasure 😊
That is a phenomenal introduction! What beautiful results!!
Thank you ♥️
Thank you for another wonderful video. The colours were so amazing those rich chocolate browns and bronzes were stunningly beautiful. I have used wool and celluloses before, but not silk. I must thrift some silk and try this again.
Thank you so much for the lesson on onion skin dyeing. Your fabrics turned out beautiful. I have a bag hanging in the panty that collects all the skins from my onions until I have enough to dye with. I've never overdyed my rust dyed fabrics. I need to give it a try now that I've seen your fabrics.
O, dear I so much enjoyed this video. The information is not new to me but it is just so lovely to listen to your voice and the experience that is so obvious in your sharings. You sparked me to give it a go again. That green from the red onion skin with rust is so me. Much Love
Much love to you too ♥️
I learn so much from you and enjoy the slow processes of all your projects....much better to enjoy it all. You are a treasure.
Thank you ❤️
Wow! I had no idea. What a wonderful video. Thank you for this. The fabrics turned out so beautifully 🥰
Thank you 😊
What a fascinating and surprising video! The fabrics are beautiful, and you shared so much information. Thank you!
My pleasure, happy to share 😊
Gorgeous results. A friend combined the exhaust baths of red onion skins and brown onion skins. The result was deep olive green!
Thank you 😊 the olive green usually comes from the addition of iron to red onions but a friend of mine was getting green from red onions every time, until recently the council updated the streets water pipes, now she gets brown. So we think there must have been iron in the old pipes. 😁♥️
Thank you for the interesting tutorial. I love the results. Didn’t aspect all the different colors and so beautiful. Time to read a book or two on this subject. Tineke
