Hi,
Thanks for the response!
I feel a lot happyer now :-) .
It also looks better now in daylight.
The only problem I have with it is that this colour probably will make
me look even jonger than most people alredy think I am... :-\
And I have to look what colour belt and embroidery wil look better on
the gown than yellow.
I think green would look well.
More reasons to dye more fabrik :-) .
It is so much fun.
Meekrap is indeed madder
We used alun as a mordand
And dyed it in a copper pan.
20% alun and afther a while I added 200% madder.
and then cleaned with water with a little ammonia.
I hope it won't ruin the silk.
But it looks ok now.
It is very thin silk don't know what it is called.
Greetings,
Deredere
