I love them!!! The ladies that work in the produce section of my small grocery store are nice enough to save me onion skins. I have used them on paper and a shirt. And I am planning to dye a nightgown. Thanks for sharing🌻

Love it and so excited for more videos to come! I do have a question for you... what is your favorite thread choice? I notice you dye finished garments and I've been trying to hone in on what cotton thread is reliable for both sewing and serging :)

@billynou 3 ай бұрын

I just used a mercerised cotton thread from my local sewing shop…. It’s important to get a good quality one as cotton can be less durable that polyester threads 🥰

Love the imperfection you are going for. Gives so much more energy to the garment, beautiful. I haven’t tried alum acetate before, I just read that you need chalk at some point. You didn’t use chalk, and I was wondering why? Thank you for another great video.

@billynou 4 ай бұрын

Thanks for appreciating the imperfections!!! I love them too. I did actually use a chalk bath after the alum acetate … just didn’t film that bit 😉

Thanks so much for another yummy bundle of inspiration! While I adore the beautiful bold pink one gets from cochineal, I always find myself returning to the awe-inspiring onion skin orange. So simple but so effective. And thanks for throwing in the silk and highlighting the contrast between the two fibers. What sort of silk do you like to use? It's so lovely!

@billynou 4 ай бұрын

Yes it’s cool to see the difference right? Errrm I bought this silk on line in a panic when I thought the silk I’d ordered for my workshops wasn’t going to arrive in time and I actually don’t really know what kind of silk it is… it’s not really a satin … very light weight… 🤪
