My whole idea was to use the fruit that seems less then edible - like use some of the blueberries for your cobbler and the gooshy/weird ones for your dye. If you were to cook down the blueberries in a food safe pot and drain the dye in a food safe collinder then you could actually keep the pulp for your cobbler too - then use the dye juice for fabric/paint !!!Miss Voodoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01506905242956102111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3808924925271942230.post-1698789593004774212008-07-10T10:32:00.000-04:002008-07-10T10:32:00.000-04:00that is awesome...i wonder if i could do that with...that is awesome...i wonder if i could do that with blueberries?? or are they better for a nice cobbler lol?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3808924925271942230.post-40272658027097315812008-07-08T13:33:00.000-04:002008-07-08T13:33:00.000-04:00After the plums I tried some grass and red onion s...After the plums I tried some grass and red onion skins to make a yellow color. I found that that yellow wasn't very deep since i only had a little onion skin, so I mixed the leftover pink form the plum with it and made a light dusty pink color, with a textured organic cotton. I will soon post the project I sew with these two fabrics- but I can't stop making dye right now :)Miss Voodoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01506905242956102111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3808924925271942230.post-37391956800164576172008-07-08T13:20:00.000-04:002008-07-08T13:20:00.000-04:00That is amazing.
