I do not at all recommend trying to remove darkdark blue dye from linen.
YMMV, but don't count on it!
Oh yes, you're so right, soaking it in bleach overnight is not a good
idea, as you illustrated. And it doesn't seem I'd get the color I wanted
anyway.
I've found two paintings of women in dark blue dresses of the style I
want to make, so I'm not worried about the color being wrong, it's just
a personal preference.
I'm wondering if staking it out on the grass for a week under our
blistering summer sun would do it.... or if I'd just get mildew and
bugs. :)
