My papa used to say "Everyday we wake up is a bonus day." So feeling well or not, it's all good!! Isn't that MDF great stuff. We even built Bridget's dance floor out of that stuff. BTW.. LOVE the material, the colors and the prints are just awesome. Hope you are enjoying your weekend.

I used the oatmeal, flour, and Cream of Wheat as fabric resists. You can find the posts under "dyeing using kitchen ingredients." And a resist acts exactly the same for fabric as for paper, but you should know, since you have a lot of fabric in your post today.<br /><br />I spread one or the other on the fabric, along with water, then allow them to dry overnight. When dry, I crunch the fabric a bit, then smooth it out and add color in the form of staz-on dyes. Once dry again overnight, I wash out the flour, oats, even have used corn syrup, and the flour or other resist keeps the dye away from the fabric. It would be better if you saw what I did, but this will give you an idea. Thanks for asking.<br /><br /><br /><br />Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2058050648836508020.post-14371622564311291822013-08-31T05:33:57.979+01:002013-08-31T05:33:57.979+01:00I forgot to ask.

But I love what your hubby has made. Not sure what they are, but I also love power tools, so that made me sit up and take notes. I really want a table saw with a jig saw attachment, but I don't have room in my garage for it. You are lucky to have such a great "crafter" at that end of the spectrum. Happy belated WOYWW from #2.

It's great when they save us money as it means we can spend it on other things....lol. I am loving your fabrics particularly that shoe one on your desk too! Have a great week!

My health has not been good for many years; childhood pneumonia; rheumatoid arthritis at 19; prostate cancer about five years ago; and now a form of emphysema. However the Lord is good. He healed me from the first three, now we are praying that He will do it again, so that I can breathe properly.<br /><br />Glad that your EM is so handy. Look forward to seeing the finished articles when you've completed your crafty bits. I used to be our EM, but can't do it anymore without getting so breathless. Margaret is now our EM, and anything she can't do has to wait for our friend from church to come and do it for us.<br /><br />Sorry for the delay getting back to you, but trust that you have a good week.
