I just found your tutorial and it was so different from what I have done so far. I always used the low immersion technique but you get such nice mottling, your fabric is beautiful so I will give this a try for sure. Thank you so much for filming this.

I would love to see what you stitched on the coral dyed fabric.

Thank you. You've inspired me to try. Your fabric was lovely.

What a great tutorial! Thank you for sharing such great information. I can’t wait to try this. Thanks again!!!

One of the best dying tutorials! Can you update this maybe focus on colour combinations? How much did fabric shrink?

Best dying tutorial I've watched. Thanks! Your method is the one I will be using.

What a fantastic tutorial. Straight forward and possible! Thank you so much 😍

Carrie thanks for the video it makes me want to dye some fabric. I have done tea dying and really like that ready to try some color. Again thanks

I am soooo glad I took the time to watch your mason jar dying method! I was thinking for my first time dying cross stitch fabric I would try the ice cube method. I watch 5 or 6 videos on that method, but the results just weren't what I am hoping to achieve. Since I love mason jars in general (so versatile) - I thought "Why not look?" Once summer settles in here in upstate New York - I will definitely be trying your method for several projects I have in mind to stitch. I quilt as well (among a couple other crafts - Yes, I am an addict to creating, No I am not looking for a cure) - in quilting I love batik fabrics and now I am wondering if I can create something similar while dying cross stitch fabric?!?!? Maybe a wax crayon resist as I dye separate colors? Who knows?! I figure it will be worth trying! Thank you for sharing this technique and come summer I look forward to giving it a try! And I am now a subscriber, off to stalk a video or two of yours :)

Thanks for doing this tutorial. I’ve been afraid to try dyeing my fabric, but your process looks really easy, and your fabrics turned out beautifully!

Do you rinse your fabric after dying? Does the dye rub off onto your floss? I hand dyed a piece of Monaco and then Aida, rinsed them for a couple of hours on and off (froze my fingertips), and dried them in the oven on 180-200 degrees for 30 to 45 minutes. I still had dye rub off onto my white (B5200/Blanc) DMC floss. I was doing something for Halloween and ended up with light, peachy colored ghosts instead of white. I had dyed the fabric with RIT Tangerine.

Love this tutorial, so easy. What size piece of fabric do you recommend using to fill the jar.

@curiouscarriedesigns

5 жыл бұрын

Thank you! For the size of fabric, it depends on what type of fabric you are using. Monaco and Aida are a bit bulkier/heftier fabrics, so you won't be able to put as much in the jar; whereas, Lugana is a thinner fabric, so you can fit more of it in the jar. For Monaco or Aida, I wouldn't go much bigger than a 20 inch x 30 inch piece. (I tend to keep my Monaco around 20 inches x 24 inches.) As for Lugana, I have gone as large as a 17 inch x 34 inch piece of fabric and it work just fine. I hope that helps!

Great video! You’ve inspired me to give this a try. Any suggestions on the best place to buy your fabric? Do you buy it by the bolt or by the yard?

Thank you for the comment, and I'm glad you enjoyed the video. When it comes to fabric, I get a lot of Aida from stores like Walmart or Michael's. I also order fabric from 123stitch. I hope that helps.

your method was mentioned in a cross stitch group. Looks so easy and love these results. as too cold here will have to sun drying my try in a sunny window. nervous about not rinsing out though. great video....you should have a FB page ....would get lots of likes/subs there too :)

Thank you very much! If you are more comfortable rinsing your fabric, by all means, go ahead and do it that way. When you take the fabric out of the mason jar, just run it through the rinsing process and then hang it to dry. Hope that helps!

@@curiouscarriedesigns TY......hoping to try this out in the next couple of days :)

I noticed you did not rinse your pieces of fabric after dying… di you have problems with dye transfer as you stitch??

Why don’t you rinse your fabric after dying in the jars ? Hanging in the sun does that make them lightfast ?

This is so great! Do you know if Aida will work for this? I dyed a piece of Aida green but I let it set too long or didn't rinse all the seizing out b/c it was very stiff when it dried. One more question, do you know what I could use to get a "silver" looking fabric? I want to make snow flake ornaments. Thanks for sharing.

@curiouscarriedesigns

I have used this method for dying Aida and the Aida takes the color quite well...as for getting a silver color, I'm afraid the closest I've come to silver, would be a light gray. I use Pearl gray RIT dye. You might be able to find a color recipe for silver on the RIT webpage.

I have been wanting to dye fabrics and have been watching a bunch of videos. Yours seems the easiest and love your results. Especially the one you did and used for the window finishing. Beautiful. One question - I noticed you don't rinse the fabric before drying on the line. Other videos show that you should rinse so the dye doesn't bleed when stitching. What have you been experiencing? Any issues since you don't rinse? Thank you so much for the tutorial and now I'm hooked on your floss tube.

(I did run them under water, when I prepped them for the 2nd round of color and the water ran clear the entire time.)

Hey. Why not put toner in the jar first. Then after that you put the fabric in there.

For this set, I did not bake the fabric in the oven. I used the heat from drying in the sun to help set the dye. When I oven bake my fabric, I set the oven to 180 degrees F and time it in 15 to 20 minute intervals for about an hour or two...just depends how quickly the fabric is drying.

Anyone ever used tea/coffee dying using this method

@curiouscarriedesigns

3 жыл бұрын

I have not tried the method with coffee/tea dyeing yet, but I think it would work fairly well. You may have to leave the fabric in the jar with the coffee and/or tea mixture a bit longer, depending on the color saturation you are looking for... I would also baked the fabric in the oven to help set the coffee dye and to get some extra spots of darker coloring. I bake my coffee dyed fabric in a 180 degree F oven and time it in intervals of 20 minutes, for about an hour or two...depends on how much mottling I want and how dark I want the mottled sections to come out.
