Well as far as I can see this fits in with the new posting guidelines it's not for sale and I had lots of fun doing it :)

sure is colourfast :) I followed all the destructions that came with my kit, and it worked! soo happy!

All I did was mix the dyes then toss them over the fabric, then come back later and pop some soda ash ans water in and let them cure for a day....

It's bamboo velour,
I don't think it's going to make a nappy- I rather fancy keeping it for myself for some Mama pads. I've got my eye out for anything I could slosh some dye on now hehehe look out!
Though it has to be a natural fibre *doh*
