Yesterday I overdyed this linen cloth with black, using clamps and a heart shape. I also dyed the largely white piece I'd dyed earlier this week and one more new one that is turquoise and cream. I plan to further their development. I also found a bunch of silk scarves at a garage sale but they smelled musty. After washing, then washing with vinegar added, then soaking overnight in a baking soda bath and then washing with soap again, they finally smell okay but have bled in places onto each other - which must make them 'blood relations'.
