- Join us as we continue looking at how fabric was dyed in the Revolutionary War era. In this episode, we visit with Eva Mergen and discuss how to get a lovely blue using indigo. Then, let's move to the next step and add the yellow from the Weld dye episode to make green. Enjoy two concepts in one episode here!

I like the March madness plug haha
Not quite. We shot this last June. Lol.
Our ancesters never let anything go to waist. Were so waistful in our world today. All of the fecies and urin were thrown into the garden for furtalizer. We are no different than animals who go to the bathroom on the ground but we found it grose to deal with so we created all these dumb things. For granted modern sanitation is abosutly needed especially if your doing these types of things but even God came up with a purpose for everything we think its garbage or waist and we just let it sot outside. If we just figured out how to work with the environment thats what they had outhouses for you could scoup that up and mix it with thr decomposing vegitation and make compost with it. We should all be finding anchent machanics they used in the past to help with modern solutions to our problems. People even baithed back then. They took bird baths to conserve water because they had to haul their own.
