These are the fabrics I dyed today. I found that the end of the bolt, where it said 100% cotton, was wrong. The warp threads must be a synthetic, because they did not take dye. You can see the weave. So, when I do this for class, I will use a different fabric, that I am certain is all cotton. But these look good anyway, don't they? I'm sure I'll use them. Number 235.Tuesday, September 15, 2009

Yes, they do look very soft and pretty!
Is that the oxford cloth you had? Oxford shirts always have a white warp. Maybe you could make shirts!
