Beautiful, Ceilidh! Your daughters are such cute little angels. 🥰 Thanks so much for sharing all your passion and knowledge and experiments with us. It's so precious and a great help and source of inspiration! I haven't done any bundle dyeing or eco printing at all so far, but a lot of scouring and mordanting for it and I can't wait to get started so-so soon. I agree with you, bundle dyeing must be more creative and wild and intuitive but I think eco-printing can also be a nice way of portraiting a beloved plant or flower and tree sometimes. Billy's right, the marks are pretty and her piece looks like a bundle dyed eco print. So cool! 💚

Hi BillyNou, i've heard you speaking about using alum and now I read a passage about it in a book about natural dying by Rebecca Desnos, and I just wanted to share it with you, who knows it can be of help to you. Thanks for all your video's, I am learning a lot :) Why I don’t use alum Alum is a popular mordant and is widely known as the ‘least toxic’ metallic salt mordant. However, it must be noted that aluminium is in fact a toxin to the human body. When handling alum, a dust mask is advisable and care should be taken to not inhale the acidic vapours from the dye pot. Without a doubt there are potential health risks from working with alum. I find the soya milk mordanting method produces better results in terms of colour fastness, so I feel no need to use alum again.

There are lots of factors that determine how colourfast the dye is … including mordanting, dye used , fabric dyed and after care…. Some dyes stay better than others but it’s also about (imo) trying to redefine our relationship with the colours and how they express themselves… natural dyes are alive and may change over time or react to changes in environment… but this IS part of the charm ☺️ sometimes the faded colour of the naturally dyed item can look even more appealing than its original shade… having said all that, it is totally possible to keep the colours long lasting too 😉

Hey this is so beautiful… i tried out this method but What can we do stop colour bleeding? When i wash with washing powder it turned out to someother colour… could you please help me with this!?
