Murder by Tea Dye-Antique Fabric





Ok...
it's sensational I know..
but basically 
I ripped it to shreds..





The murder victim.. an antique tablecloth..



I made a tea bath using darjeeling tea
and Chai for the scent alone...











I pulled it out of the bath...







and decided that I wanted it a bit darker so I bundled it..
with string..












and threw it the bundle back into a pot dye bath and boiled it 
and let it dry...







I love the marks it makes as it dries...





and now I have it all ready for 
my tiny fabric book..









that we will be filming this Friday...









see you all then..
gentle readers..
