Terrie your poor son,I'm also hoping he's comfortable and heals quickly. I wish you and the family strength supporting him. Perhaps the medics can reverse things.

Luann sorry I hadn't got my head screwed on and didn't think about the process. I'm new to dyeing so it was just a passing thought I'm still trying to get my head round everyone's methods. If you want to discuss a subject properly rather than get lost in a thread it's probably best to start a new one in the right section. That's no guarantee that it'll stay on topic though

Any time ! Luann !

Marilyn,
Thanks for the info. And especially for the ideas of what to do with them afterwards.
Luann

Sorry to hear about your son, Terrie! He will be in my heart and my thoughts.

Annilu...I used coffee filters mostly..sometimes a paper towel in a plastic strainer. Then the dry papers
went to a friend of mine who was doing paper crafts of many kinds. Scrap-booking, collage and such.
Another friend used them to color paper pulp for paper-making.

Fabulous Annis! Love Prairie Star.
Barb:-)

Yikes Terrie! Sending positive thoughts your way. Was he in an accident?

What is a lizard?
And we'll see if I put this in the correct place

Marilyn,
I appreciated your comment. I haven,t been straining my dye solutions and your comment reminded me that it would be a good idea. What do you use to strain it through? I've heard some folks use coffee filters, gauze, or sheer fabric. So, if you care to share, I would appreciate it.
Thanks for your encouragements,
Luann

Oh, Terrie! I am so sorry to hear about your son! I will keep him in my prayers! My son was 22 when he had surgery for a ruptured disc. He still has problems today, with leg and back pain. He's 38. Praise the Lord, he has a job that allows him to sit, walk or stand when he needs too, and a fiancé who is sympathetic to what he is going through, because she has been through it, too.

BTW, I mailed a couple of lizards to you today!

Hugs,
Dawn

Oh Terrie, sending good thoughts and prayers for your son.

Luann, beautiful dyeing job. I especially like the orange tones. I can see some wonderful fall leaves there.

Terrie I will be praying for your son.

Wendy, keep us updated on the new kitchen. I love remodels.

Marilyn, I am getting a new back door too. Also some more walls put up in the basement to frame in the utility room and to close off my sewing area. With a lock to keep the grandkids out when I can't be there to supervise them.

Is there any way to get our replys to show up beneath what we are replying to? Some sites have it and that way you really know what someone is commenting on. If any one has an idea, let me know.

Thanks
Luann
