Introduction
I started dyeing fabric because I wanted to play around with color and see what would happen. Next I signed up for a sewing workshop that asked me to bring one-yard pieces of as many different colors of solid fabric as I could. One hundred yards were suggested! Now, I knew how to buy fabricI had a closet full to prove it.
