a change of color
***Attention fabric dye goddesses***
I've decided I don't want another 1780s cream jacket ensemble so I want to dye the cream petticoat I just made and leftover fabric a robin's egg blue (to match some jewelry I have). Am I really stupid to not disassemble the skirt (taking the waistband off) before I throw it in a dye bath? I don't want to have to redo all the pleats if I don't have to but then again I want it to dye evenly. Opinions?
Also what combination of colors should I use, a light blue with a bit of yellow based green yes? I think that is right...
Thanks!
