I then pour the tea into a jar and added my fiber that I had mordanted first with alum. I let mine sit in the sun for a few days and steep but with the tansy you'd see results almost right away. It's a great dyestuff.Lisa at lil fish studioshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15264613554041175072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31186364.post-65733449430323058062011-08-03T17:37:26.998-05:002011-08-03T17:37:26.998-05:00We have the tansy and the asters here too right no...We have the tansy and the asters here too right now.
