    I've never seen ice dyeing before, lovely effect. Always a good day when you learn something.

    I saw that you can create pleating from narrow to as wide as you want it which gives a less bulky gathering ….I’ve done it and it really works. Folding the pleats as you sew them.

    There are also „undying“ chemicals for sale at craft stores (like Spotlight in Australia) to get a red hue out of a fabric again. Not quite a bleach, but similar.

    Great upcycling. Loved the shoutout to Alanna Hill and will hunt for her book. Also loved the new addition to my playlist at 04:28 - Where I'm Going by Sunriver. Not heard them before.

    Yeh! I believe they say Bi-weekly in the US? Which would mean.. twice a week here.. 😵‍💫

    Yep. Fortnightly - totally legitimate word. Fortnight is derived from fourteen nights, ergo, doing something every 2 weeks = fortnightly. Probably British in origin but, definitely in common usage in Australia and here in Aotearoa/ New Zealand. 😊
