I can't remember if its dying or dyeing, with the 'e'. At any rate, I've done more fabric dyeing and here are the results:
I had left over diluted dye from my previous combinations of fuchsia red, pagoda red, deep orange, deep yellow, amethyst, eggplant, and lemon yellow. They were all diluted to 1/16th of the original strength in previous dye lots and saved in the refrigerator for about a month. There were 4 bottles of the mixed colors that looked like 2 very similar shades of orange, a light dusty pink, and a light shade of purple. This time, I scrunched the pre-treated and wet fabric into shoe box size containers and squirted the dyes on top of the fabric in several combinations. I pushed the fabric into the liquid and let it sit overnight without stirring the fabric. There are now 4 different fabrics to have fun with.
These look so wonderful. Looking forward to seeing how you decide to use them.
