My mother was a sewest, my father loved opera and classical music, also folk music. I grew up listening to it all at a deafening level, and loving every minute. I learned stitching through osmosis, and also loved to disappear where I couldn’t be found. Loved to read and absorbed every word available on me. Great background for an artistic adult. Loved your video.

AhHa! I thought you'd say Italian Opera for your fave…I was close. Sometimes I listen to music while creating, sometimes it's too distracting. My fave is the old Simon and Garfunkel from the 60s bc they tell stories then instrumental classical, ensembles or just harp, or just violin. Right now my favorite poet is Morgan Harper Nichols as she reads her poetry and thoughts on her podcast…so thought evoking and also she has a very calming voice. I will look for Mary Oliver !! Thanks for taking time to answer my questions. Love your tea bundles. I wasn't getting dark marks on my tea dye. Your statement about dunk and drape over to let dry, might be the solution to the problem. I’m using three bags to just one cup of water. What is your tea to water ratio? Maybe I can improve mine? Love your stitching today. Your compositions were lovely. You two take care. Sending ❤️😘 C4N.

When dyeing with tea how do you fix the colour . ?

@CaterinaGiglio 9 ай бұрын

I don’t fix it…I don’t concern myself with it fading…

When you said watch your tea bath boil ...I wondered if you put your bundles on the stove in a pot and actually boil them?

Do you rinse them before using? Do they mold?

@CaterinaGiglio 2 жыл бұрын

I don’t rinse them and I don’t have mold issues.. I often dry them outside, if you want to rush the process use a hairdryer…

If the item is to be washed, do you prewashed before stitching?

Interesting video, Cat. But unfortunately the video wasn't the clearest initially, which was a shame when you were showing & stitching your first piece. Much better when you zoomed in a little. It would have been nice to have seen some pictures of your finished pieces at the end too. I create small embroidered pieces with rusted fabric but I haven't tried it with tea dyed fabric. Must give it a try. Thanks for the inspiration. C xx

Hi Paula.. it IS eco dyeing because tea was once a plant but food grade and that means you don’t need separate pots pans or equipment.😘
