Using commercial fabric feels like wearing someone else’s panties. That being said, I’m dyeing again next week.
It’s not that it’s not pretty. It’s gorgeous. But I need fabric with light sources where there’s room for ideas to grow. Besides, I’m out of brown and I need to make a tree for my owl.
I’ve always made fabric available to people, because there are always gorgeous fabrics that just don’t work for my plans. And I always wanted to make what I use available to students trying to learn what I do. But hand dyed light source fabric is like every wonderful thing, addictive. Once you use it, it will feel like yours in a way that commercial fabric just can’t. I love having fabric that is individual to each piece and never really repeatable.
Your fabric arrives prewashed, starched, ironed and needle ready!
I sell my fabric two ways. You can set up a video call with me and pick out your fabric personally.
Or you can tell me what you need and I’ll dye it for you. Do you want pink sunsets? Deep woods? Meadows drenched in sunlight. You can do that with hand dyed fabric backdrops, before you stitch at all. That’s why I use it. You may want to as well.
This batch is the 44″ dyer’s cloth from Dharma. It should be breathtaking. It’s a short dye run for me, but I’m happy to dye fabric just for you. It sells for $24 per yard, usually in 1/2, 1, and 1 1/2 yard pieces, unless you tell me otherwise.
