Loved the tutorial! ❤. I have been playing with dyeing Aida so far I have tea dyed, used Autumn 🍂 leaves, elder berries, and huckleberries, and some small mum blossoms. The modeling has turned out great on some.
Great job. I’m 71 and live at my daughters’s. I have rooms on back of their house. I quit cooking quite some time ago so I’ll just be buying my dyed but it was fun to watch. Thank y’all for taking the time to make videos.
Thank you for the awesome tutorial...I have been staining and baking fabric forever, I stain homespun, calico...muslin for primitive dolls etc...I stain linen for stitching...I had Asked in a previous floss tube how you dry your fabric I was curious because that’s how I do if it’s raining out, I normally hang on clothes line and sun dry...both ways work....I buy instant coffee either at dollar tree or dollar store good place for tea bags too...another good source is black walnut dye, I gather black walnuts boil in old pot on grill burner, strain into large pickle jars and store in cool place...you can save your tea/coffee potion as well and use numerous times but it will need to be refrigerated or it goes sour....I put mine in mason jars and put in refrigerator for a few weeks....I have also put coffe/tea solution in a dollar store spray bottle and hung fabric on clothes line and sprayed intermittently throughout day and let sun bake...so many choices.....fun fun...thank you again look forward to more tutorials girls....
I really appreciate you showing us how you tea/coffee dye your stitching fabric...I will definitely be trying this......Thanku again...ps..I really enjoy watching your videos and seeing what you’ve been stitching...it’s very inspiring...
You guys are so much fun. This is similar to what I do, too. I like to sprinkle instant coffee here and there on the fabric while it's still wet, but before I bake it, and that makes cool splotches that look like age spots. Wouldn't stitchers from 100 years ago think we are crazy for making our fabric so DIRTY on purpose?! :D
Awesome video. Thanks for showing us how its done. I bet certain fabrics takes dye different as well. I will have to try it. Great tips ladies too. Thanks again and bring some more tutorials our way.
Oh thank you so much for all of your efforts in showing us your coffee/tea dying fabric process.......love it !!! Gonna try it this week!!! Happy Stitching!!!
Wonderful tutorial!!! I am definitely going to try your method. Love your kitchen Priscilla and your Christmas decorations on and around your beautiful window!!
Just dyed two pieces of aida 14 count and 11 count from Walmart and it turned out perfect! Thanks so much for your video!! Saves me alot of money now I have the confidence to dye my own instead of buying the more expensive hand dyed aida!
I've never wanted to try to do anything with fabric until this video. Thanks for sharing. I LOOOOOOOVE your videos. You guys are so funny together and so much fun to watch!!
Place a wooden spoon over the pot rim to catch the bubbles. It prevents bubbling over. Today was my first attempt. Thanks for the info I baked mine at 250 degrees.
Thanks so much for the video. It’s helping me take the plunge and do my own tea/coffee dyed fabric. It helps watching several of you do it, Vonna, Primitive Stitcher and others.
Thank you so very much for your wonderful tutorial! I had about a metre of my Grandmother’s embroidery linen that had gotten dirty and stained over the years. I really wanted to use it with my renewed love for cross stitch. Now I can....beautiful. Thank you!
Thanks so much ladies! I can't wait to try this method. I have tea dyed before & baked but I love how your fabrics look. So glad you shared how to do it. Thanks again!!!
Great tutorial video. Your Christmas decorations are already looking beautiful, Priscilla. I sure hope you will show us all of your decorating once you have finished. Have a wonderful week sweet ladies. Crystal.
Thank you! I think I could actually do this! Love the idea of saving the water for your plants-I put used coffee grounds around my rose bushes and they bloom like crazy.
You two are Awesome! I googled this process and you two popped up first! Delightful, since I'm binge watching you two! But I'm getting a lot done too, and you make me happy! Bonus!!
Thanks for sharing I can't wait to give it a try!! I have some solid fabric I wouldn't otherwise use, this will certainly make it fun! Happy Stitching XX!!
Thank you for this tutorial. I’m trying small pieces of Aida 14 now. You make it look easy. I’m very much looking forward to seeing the finished product.
Interesting video. Great instructions. I have been dying and baking fabrics for a while but have never done a blue fabric. Will have to try it. I stitch on linen mostly and have dyed it the most. Recently dyed a piece of linen and couldn’t remember the temp I bake it at so set oven to 275/300. Well not going good. Linen was to done. Loved color but threads denigrated making holes while in oven. Had to throw small linen piece away. Realized linen basically dried out so much due to heat. Will have to try again and remember 200 or less.
Thank you so much. I did a coffee/ tea dye, but I did it separate. I'm going to try it your way. Sooooo much easier lol. I also did the bake and baste method. Pretty time-consuming doing it that way. I really love the way you do it. I will be dying some fabric today! 😁
Never too old to learn new tricks. Thanks for the concise tutorial. Next time I'll try the oven at 200° for mottling. Question: Once the fabric has been "baked", can it be washed? Thanks.
Great tutorial ladies. I still stitch on AIDA and i check mine about every 5 to 7 minutes just because AIDA seems to burn more quickly if you aren't careful. I love the look of tea and coffee dyed fabric. Great job ladies.
I tried your dying technique on some aida tonight and it came out great! Thanks for the tip for the left over tea/coffee blend being good for the garden!
Great tutorial! Had been experimenting with coffee tea dying my fabric and this answered some questions I had had. I actually did a similar tea dying using hibiscus tea which turned out really pretty. Thank you so much! Very informative
thank you so much, I had so much fun watching your video and learnt a lot, hugs from Spain! ....I almost forget... you girls are doing a great job, I wish I had more videos in a week...
You have both inspired me I don't have coffee but I'm doing it just with straight T and I'm not going to bake this first batch because I don't have parchment paper and I don't know if you can put it on the tin foil so I'm just going to do Straight T die and then let it dry but I'm going to experiment and then I'm going to try it with the coffee next month when I can go someplace and get it cheaper but I love the color of the fabric and it's like so right up my alley with looking antiquey and old and it's great thank you so so much you too.
So...our Hobby lobby no longer carries Monaco ☹ My local stitch shop will only order it when I need it but I am an instant gratification girl and I like to use my 40% coupon. So today I bought the only package of 100% cotton 28ct evenweave by Artiste at Hobby lobby. I decided to use your wonderful tutorial above and it came out looking beautiful. Now for the stitch test when it dries completely. 🤞
Hmm, ive tea dyed & coffee dyed but never both mixed together, i think ill try this method. I just coffee stained fabric recently & baked it in the oven but i put some mixture in a spray bottle & kept taking it out & re spraying it til i got what i wanted. The fabric looked like pasta sheets when you first took it out of the pot onto the sheets, lol.
Can’t wait to try this. I used Vonna’s baste and bake and ended up with some burns. I am still planning a Halloween piece but don’t really want to burn my fabric again. I am flattered to hear that you were watching me while waiting! Pam
Thank you Thank you Thank you soooo much, I am going to try this I am wanting to do a haed on a piece of fabric that looks like a map ( as I am going to do the outlander map with the background removed) so I am going to give this a try and see if it comes out how I want to fingers crossed.
Thank you so much for the coffee /tea video. Didn't know the coffee/tea water is good for soil but Priscilla you must have the bluest hydrangeas , I also feed them coffee. thanks
I was thinking about doing this to my pearl gray fabric for the winter SAL. I think I remember one of you darkening a piece of it for one of your projects.
I just dyed my first fabric with okay reults. I didn't know about scrunching or baking the fabric for a mottled look. I should have watched this first. Next time I'll know better.
30 years of cross stitching and I've never done this before! Just finished 2 pieces and I LOVE it
Loved the tutorial! ❤. I have been playing with dyeing Aida so far I have tea dyed, used Autumn 🍂 leaves, elder berries, and huckleberries, and some small mum blossoms. The modeling has turned out great on some.

Thank you for this tutorial. I followed along and did this to my Halloween project fabric last night. It turned out great!

Thank you for doing this - I have always been nervous about how long to keep it on the stove and in the oven.....this helps 100%😊
Can’t wait to try this. I used Vonna’s baste and bake and ended up with some burns. I am still planning a Halloween piece but don’t really want to burn my fabric again. I am flattered to hear that you were watching me while waiting! Pam
“Don’t rupture the teabags!” needs to be a cross stitch pattern!
😂😂😂
Great teamwork ❤️ you balance each other perfectly perfect ❤️
Thank you so much for doing this tutorial...I was hoping you would...can't wait to do my own now...😊
Thank you Thank you Thank you soooo much, I am going to try this I am wanting to do a haed on a piece of fabric that looks like a map ( as I am going to do the outlander map with the background removed) so I am going to give this a try and see if it comes out how I want to fingers crossed.
Thank you for sharing the video. You two are a hoot together!
Thanks. Great process, your fabric looks fabulous.
Could you save the liquid to use at a later time. Jar it up and put it in the frig? Just curious.
Thanks so much for that....I will try it! Love the mottled look.
Great tutorial! I love watching you both! ❤️
Thank you so much for the coffee /tea video. Didn't know the coffee/tea water is good for soil but Priscilla you must have the bluest hydrangeas , I also feed them coffee. thanks
Thx! I’ve dyed mine by spraying coffee all over and baking but this is going to be a new try for me
I was thinking about doing this to my pearl gray fabric for the winter SAL. I think I remember one of you darkening a piece of it for one of your projects.
Watching this again! Working on my first batch of tea/coffee dyed fabrics. Thanks for another great video! :)
Thank you ladies!
Go AZTECS! From a fellow San Diegan. You guys are so fun to watch. Thank you.
I just dyed my first fabric with okay reults. I didn't know about scrunching or baking the fabric for a mottled look. I should have watched this first. Next time I'll know better.
Fun to watch! I never put mine in oven either, but makes sense. It makes my day when I hear Pricilla giggle.😂 Happy stitching! 😀
This was awesome! Thank you ladies!
First time doing this method and it was so easy and a success! Thank you!
