Well, second time lucky I managed to rescue my duna cover!

The first time around, I followed the directions on the box of dyes, I rubber-banded, squirted, coloured, covered, waited, and then washed. Big mistake. The directions on the box recommended adding detergent to the wash. I was so excited to see my creation, but it was a washed out faded mish mash of nothing.

I dried it, folded it and stuck it in the linen press.

Several weeks later, I wanted a new top, had no funds to go shopping and got out the dyes again.

(See my previous post for the results!)

While I had the dye bottles out…..

This time around, I did a rinse and spin (no soap!), stuck it on the line, and……..
Shazam!!! How brilliant does it look?

Frodo approves!
