  2. is that indigo, or logwood? beautiful either way. i did my first logwood dyeing today and made some yardage that looks very much like those dresses - hoping to make a dress with it myself.

  10. It looks so pretty. I used to dye everything I owned until my mom got tired of me ruining her pots and pans. And, I am absolutely in love with the title of your blog.
