http://www.etsy.com/storque/article/2490/ See the article on Etsy's blog: The Storque, for more information. This week Kim Hall, a teacher here at the EtsyLabs and an Etsy Seller (nottene), came by to show us her technique for dying natural fabric with organic ingredients. Kim has worked with many different dying and printing methods and we're honored to have her as an instructor! If you've always wanted to dye your own fabrics or yarn, this is a great video to get you started. If you try out this technique, make sure you take some pics and post them in our Show and Tell Flickr Pool!
@snokful Thanks for the comment ^^

@P0k3m0nTrainer many many plants make *excellent* food colourings, more than work on cloth. just check they aren't poisonous and their taste works with what you're making. search for terms like DIY, natural, food, colouring

@yx92ify no, it doesn't keep an onion smell, guaranteed.

Salt does NOT help to fix natural dyes, that's a total myth! Red cabbage WILL wash out & fade straight away. Turmeric fades VERY badly in sunlight. Onion skins are the best of these dyes, but will probably fade quite a bit without proper fixing - with a metal mordant! // But hey, if you just want a bit of fun, go for it, just don't expect anything permanent.
