    When I've dyed old clothes, old stains, though may be unnoticeable, can show up and not absorb dye at the same rate even when using a darker color dye. May have also been a flaw in the original fabric or flaw from original dying. Hopefully you've figured out a fix by now.

    You need a button foot if you haven’t gotten one already. They make it so much easier. 💜 I’m surprised your machine didn’t come with one.

    Love the avocado-dye idea! I'm wondering why you didn't dye the original dress before starting your sewing. That way, if the fabric had turned into an ugly color, you wouldn't have wasted all the sewing.

    I'm so sorry you feel this way. My channel is about sewing and upcycling. I have never and will never force my political beliefs onto my audience. I started this channel to share my work and creativity with everyone, regardless of their political beliefs. However, wearing masks (especially in September of 2020, which is when I posted this video) is a public health issue, and is not and should not be a political one.
