K3N, you have provided us an entire semester of rust/tea dying. Your generosity is much appreciated - so thorough and I will definitely "have a go".
"I love it, I just love it!"
Your enthusiasm is *adorable!* This is what I subscribed for.
Totally agree! 😊
Thank you and welcome 🤗
I'll never look at paper, cloth or rusty bits the same ever again! Wow, they are truly stunning!
Watching this has bought back very distant memories of letter writing days and me thinking that paper was so boring would tea and coffee dye it. I'm reinvigorated and feel like my world has expanded beyond my wildest dreams.
It is, as they say, the little things that count!
Fabulous tutorial and I just loved hearing your excitement as you discovered what you'd created, awesome.
Thank you so much 💜
My absolute pleasure, have fun ♥️
Wow !!! First, thank you so much for taking the time to do these videos for us. Between Part One and Part Two, it has obviously taken you days and many many many hours to collect all of the materials/tools to do this, and to then do the tea and rust dyeing and then to rinse and dry everything and then to shoot the videos and later edit them....... my goodness...... you have been busy. I want you to know how much I appreciate the time you take with all of your videos. You are greatly appreciated for your thoughfulness and thoroughness. I learn so much from each video. Second - oh my goodness Everything came out beautifully - the apron, the fabric scraps, the threads and the papers. Wow!!!! Gorgeous. my oh my........
thank you so much for your appreciation and understanding, makes it an absolute pleasure ♥️
@@k3n.clothtales You are most welcome. For some reason, the rest of my comment is not showing. It was...... Second .... oh my goodness. Everything is so beautiful. The apron, the fabric scraps, the thread and the papers. Wow !!!
I have been so looking forward to part 2 of the rust dyeing process, what a great way to start the day. I have been collecting some rusty bits and pieces and am now about to sort through my fabric and papers and gave a go. Thank you so much for sharing, fabulous videos
Everything turned out so beautiful! Love the effect on threads and fabric you (or I) would not otherwise use. Really nothing has to go to waste, thank you!!🍀💖
Here's your round of applause... 👋
👏👏👏👏👐👐👏👏 💙😊
takes a bow 😁♥️
I am really enjoying these videos. Watching you rinse the papers and commenting it’s like developing photos in a darkroom brought me back to my teen years and my Dad developing black & white photos in our basement darkroom. Thanks for bringing me back to that time. Here’s your round of applause👏👏👏. Instead of rain water I could also just melt some snow since there’s a bit here right now.
*takes a bow 😁❤️❤️❤️
I think it’s time I start playing with some rust. The threads came out beautiful in the tea, so many experiments to try…How fun. Thank you.
Stunning results. I would even frame those pieces individually and appreciate them just as they are. They would keep my eyes ‘interested’, as any abstract art does.
I enjoyed seeing the effect of the dyeing on the smaller pieces especially. That paisley is really pretty now. Very fun to watch this. Now I know what eco-dyeing is. Thank you
Oh this is only the kindergarten of ecodyeing, there's a whole warren of rabbit holes in store 😂😁❤️
No it’s soo exciting!would never wiz through !
😁♥️
That was totally brilliant !!! Thank you so much for sharing. I'm now apparently that person whilst walking her dog,hunting for rusty pieces of metal !! With I may add,success!😁😆
yeay, my kind of person... my daughter used to call it 'spying and swooping', Mummy spies something on the ground then she swoops to pick it up.. 😂♥️
This has been very eye opening. I never dreamed that you could accomplish such a dramatic change in both paper and fiber. I loved my trip down the rabbit hole with you. Thank you so much! and
As Simon Cowell would say, I didn't like that, I LOVED it! Really looking forward to seeing the Eco-printing!
So fun watching you tuck the bits into the apron and folding it all....I kept thinking, "Oh, so cozy!" I am learning so, so much from you!!!
ps....the apron is absolutely gorgeous. It is so interesting to think of someone(s) wearing it and working in it and stitching it up...the history....I love listening to you speak about that.
So pleased you get it, the history of it. Thank you 😊❤️
I loved every minute of these 2 videos and was applauding and cheering with each reveal! Thank you so much for the time and energy you have put into them for all of us to enjoy and learn. I have many 'too bright' fabrics from my days of making baby quilts, and now I know what to do with them 😊
My pleasure I am so glad you enjoyed it. I have some rather garish peach coloured cotton threads in a bowl of tea at the moment 😁♥️
Your excitement is palpable - I know the feeling all too well. I like to give my small quilts a coffee dip to grunge them up - it gives them a primitive time-worn appearance which i love. The magic happens overnight 😃 your pinny is perfect, as are your lovely stained papers - the fabrics and threads too 🤎🩶
I'm giving you a round of applause from Nebraska USA! I love the papers so much! The marbling that happens is gorgeous. 💜 💜 💜
Thank you so much! ❤️
👏👏👏 I love seeing your enthusiasm. Thank you for another interesting and engaging video.
I loved watching you tea dying - thank you for sharing
My pleasure I am glad you enjoyed it ❤️
I’ve been so waiting for this second video. The great reveal! I was curious to see if the metal would act as an imprint. I desperately need to find rusty metal bits! With your tutorials my list of things to do is growing😅 Thank you!
Tweezers would good for extracting the pins from paper just a tip thanks for documenting the process 👍
That was a beautiful start of my day. Thank you so much k3n! 😘
Made me snork with laughter "get a French calendar" @ 22.20 mins 😂😂😂
Yes, absolutely essential, and must be Perigueux in Bloom 😁
These two videos have been so informative and enjoyable to watch. Everything came out so beautiful, I especially like all the material and thread results. Thank you so much for sharing your process.
Down the rabbit hole I go! I tea dyed tissues and am putting on my small water closet wall
I'm happy that I found your channel, it's now my absolute favorite❤ Thank you, greatings from Vienna
Welcome!
Everything turned out lovely , I’ve also enjoyed rust dying several years ago it sure is fun . Really enjoyed watching the results of your fibres . 🤗🤗🙌🤲👏 and here is your round of applause 🎉❤
Why thank you 😊😊😊
Beautiful amazing results... I was very interested in how the paper turned out. I haven't ever done it with paper at all. I haven't made those type of paper journals. I feel I need to experiment now though because they looked so beautiful 💐😊
I can’t wait to try all of this…..am saving all my teabags and have to seek out some rusty ‘bits’ in my husband’s collection😊….thank you as ever Kathryn.
My pleasure, have fun 😊
Was a gift finding you on here x Thank-you so so much for tour fabulous videos ,I am so inspired and sooooo looking forward to creating this year along with you xx much love x
Thank you! I may try some this weekend. I enjoy listening to you as a "textile detective" when talking about the apron! ❤️
You have me excitedly creating a rusty object hoard :-) Time to go rummaging in my fathers shop for rusty saw blades! These came out absolutely beautifully. The marks on the papers remind me of nebulae.
Did i miss why one must wear gloves when dealing with rust? And when you mentioned you had a stream aaaah. Just heaven. My place of peace
hello, some people can be sensitive but even if not, it does dry your skin. I just think it's a duty of care to at least recommend gloves, but of course I can't make you wear them. 😁
Thank you for that. I was just concerned as I have not worn gloves in the past
She is working with black oxide here and that is much safer. Tetanus can thrive in the same environments that create rust. Also, if you are trying to create rust with vinegar and peroxide, the combination creates a toxic mix.
@@spiritsgyre2021 thank you ❤️ I mentioned about tetanus possibly being in the same environment as rust in the video too. 😉
I have loved these videos. It is wonderful to find a kindred spirit who gets as thrilled as I do when I see rusty marks! We are in the process of building our home with our son-in-law on an old farmstead. I kept collecting any old rusty bits we'd find as we dug our trenches and foundation. No one understood me. 😁 Now to finish the house so I can make all rusty fabrics. Bravo on such beautiful marks and thank you so much for sharing.
Very good information. I think I will give it a go. Need to find some rusty bits. Thank you for sharing your vast knowledge. Love your channel.❤
We are "Applauding "👏👏👏❤ the papers are magnificent ❤the threads are beautiful colors
Hop, hop, hop,…down the rabbit hole I go…. Hugs and blessings, 🤗🤣🇨🇦
😂 it's a complex warren of possibilities 😁❤️
The colors of the rust and everything against it is just amazing. I’d love to hear your excitement. I’m excited just watching this process. Thank you so much for sharing and taking the time.
Oh, I loved that ! Thank you 😊
This was all so fascinating! Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and process, Kathryn! 😊
Very beautiful results Kathryn, I love how everything turned out.😍
I am giving you a round of applause 😂
There really is nothing like the anticipation of unwrapping a bundle or looking through paper and fabric to see the results 😊
Thank you 😊 of course I agree with you ❤️
Wow, I could watch you unveiling your gems for hours! So glad I found your channel. You are a delight to listen to and you do outstanding projects. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.
Welcome 🤗
Thank you Kathryn for the video and part 2. Very clear directions. It was excellent to see the process all the way through. What amazing results ,the paper is artistic in its own right. I was most amazed with the patterned/coloured fabric and how it toned it down. I have no fabric stash and just found a lovely company who send 1 kilo of scraps for a nominal fee. I am really pleased with it but a lot is rather bright. We all know what I shall be up to this weekend, can't wait to see the results.
So loved watching this video, thanks so much. Can't wait to try this method with threads & printed fabrics. I get a real buzz with my eco dyeing. Wonderful.
I must try this technique. Beautiful results! Thank you for sharing your process!!
It's so beautiful! And yes, I'm hunting rust now😊 never thought I would be doing that.
😁
Thank you again Kathryn for sharing the process & such beautifully coloured results on both paper & cloth / threads. Have already tea dyed some cloth & now raiding the man space for rusty bits so I can do paper. Great to be doing water play as it’s been so hot & humid here in my part of Oz. 💕🙃xbrenda.
One thing I am eternally grateful for is that I take great pleasure in admiring the tiny details of paper and cloth when treated (or eco printed) as you have done. This is even though I’ve been using these techniques for years. The ‘surprise’ of what I will find is always wondrous. I wondered about wrapping the threads around some of the smoother rusty bits for some variegation. Lovely videos and channel for the gentle, creative soul.
Thank you, I sometimes wrap threads around my ecoprint bundles , gives a lovely silvery grey. ❤️
Oh my! Dearest Kathryn, Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday! And, yes, so often the backs of things are much better than the fronts, aren’t they? Thank you for showing us each and every one. Truly inspiring. xo
So satisfying Thank you
This was so educational, I really learned a lot. I want to thank you for sharing your process. All of your pieces turned out just lovely. I really loved the threads. I will be using more of the things I have shoved to the side. You are a rare gem. Again, thank you for sharing!😊
My pleasure, I am so pleased you enjoyed it 😊
Just Beautiful!! Today is a sunny day - I will spend my day tea dying. First tho, I must find some rusty bits.
A perfect part 2 and so good that you showed everything and mentioned tips as you went along as always - that's the beauty of k3n - appreciated as always ❤
Thank you 😊
Thank you once again! This is so interesting and inspiring, so many possibilities. I love the fact that it's a constant surprise, impossible to know the result. Oh! I bought the Slow Stitch book that you showed us, it is wonderful! Thank you!
My pleasure glad you like Claire's book ❤️
Thank you for this video K3n. It's wonderful to see the whole process. Your presentation is calming and very clear to follow. Very much appreciate all your work and care. Ruth A. Xx
those are absolutely beautiful! luckily i have a large bowl filled with rusted washers that i collect - usually i add them to my stitch work but this is something i can do before that - thank you so much for showing us this
😮 wow I can’t wait to get going with this! I’ll be raiding the man shed for rusty bits later! 🎉
Hiya 🌞 😊, l really like the " history" in the fabrics that come my way,- just like when you're reading a book and a previous reader has left a comment scrawled in the page! I tend to incorporate bits that have been mended/ altered through their lifetimes more as its like someone sending you a hello through the generations. Have a marvellous week and everyone here😊 ( julia) J.I.M.K Mrs. Brisbane, Australia 🇦🇺 ♥ 😀 😊🪃.
Yes and that is a lovely way of putting it ❤️
Thank you so much for a really useful video. Using the back of the fabric after tea dying was surprising. So am now going to go through my stash hidden away and not used, exciting process. Am going to try dyeing with my plants from the garden. Au revoir. Anne
Oh Kathryn, this is just fascinating! I have done some rust dyeing before but this is just such a detailed and informative tutorial that I can't wait to have a go again. Thank you so much for what you are doing for us ❤😊
I really enjoyed these 2 videos… what am I saying I love all your videos., but I have never done rust dyeing and I certainly will now! Can’t wait for Friday to start your next project with you, I’m tea dyeing as I write this! I’m working on a collage piece of my dog Molly, but will squeeze your project in as well. Thank you for sharing your talents. I’m on UA-cam as well as Erndales!
And. No. Never boring to watch the unraveling, such a joy.
Bty, have you got a shed we could all come and live in 😊
If I put you in the manshed, we'd never find you again 😂❤️
Thank you for your tutorial, I loved every minute of it. The papers are so beautiful with all the colors. I will give it a try in the summer because I have no space in my house for such a job. Love Tineke
I'm going to give this ago over the weekend. I love the historic clothing you can purchase in France, not something I've ever seen here in New Zealand. I'm really enjoying getting back into my slow stitching.
Wonderful thank you. I can’t wait to have a go. I need to seek out some rusty objects first - I think a visit to my brother-in-law’s garage is overdue!
Definitely stunning results....if you can get your hand on some walnut shell covers and scatter you get something rathere lovely too.....iv got so many projects on the go ill be at it for ever and a day...😂..thank you so much for sharing Kathryn always a pleasure....
Hiya 🌞, l have used walnut shells and onion skins,too!lts interesting the differences in shading they produce and intensity😊(Julia, not my son,Damien-an oldie learning how to use this device! )Love k3n s chatting.
I have a permanent cauldron full of walnut shells and husks, soaking in rain water.... Of course I do 🤣😊🤣
@k3n.clothtales of course you do silly me how could I not of known...😂😂
@@damienk5011intresting results for sure...happy learning....yes our friend k3n can spin story 😂...
😎😎😎
Thank you for a really interesting video. Very enjoyable to watch.
Beauuuuutiful! Thanks so much for sharing the entire process with us. Will now be on the look-out for rusty bits.
You are amazing. I love these. I have a bunch of old rusty keys. They would be nice. Everything turned out wonderful. I especially love the paper. Thank you.
How amazing, never had a more in-depth tutorial without being with the tutor. Thank you ❤
Thank YOU 😊
I feel your joy at this creative process. Fun. This is definitely a rabbit hole I’ll be going down.
I love it all ❤ I can't wait to see how you eco print 😍 thank you for sharing you really go into great depth I wish I'd had teachers like you at school😅 much love 😊
Thank you 😊
They're lovely. And so interesting. Some of the papers look almost like stone or marble.
OMGOODNESS I am drooling over such rusty crusty lovelyness🤎🤎🤎
I did some last summer & hot bright sun on our deck did some lovelies too🤎 … thankYou for sharing
👏👏👏👏 Amazing! The papers are absolutely beautiful. The old apron is wonderful. I really want to try this but may have to wait until spring so I can find some rusty things from under the snow. I will see what my husband has in his stash of tools etc. Thank you for showing us how to do this process. I’ve watched other rust printing videos but none with such wonderful results. Going to try some tea dying now.
Sitting listening and watching you while I am winding a material rug.from thrifted duvet covers strips . I have put a piece of old sheet into tea bags and turmeric to see what will happen. Will take a snap once about the size of a dinner plate.
I enjoyed this sooo much. I have always used vinegar and now need to try tea. So excited! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
They are all delicious! I haven’t done much with my dye pot this past year but I will get back to it soon.
Thank you for the great tutorial - everyone has their own twist on things ,always something to be learned.
I’ll definitely dye some threads … what a great idea. I tried a small piece of linen in Rooibos tea. So simple. Now for some paper. Thank you for sharing all this wonderful knowledge and experience. 😘
They are fantastic I’m liking them with the tea and coffee more than the vinegar ❤
Definitely going to have to find some rusty bits and give this a try.
Wonderful results! I have rust dyed fabric before but never paper. Will have to try. Thank you so much for the tutorial!❤❤❤
Love it! Beautiful. Thanks so much.
Oh how I wish I wasn’t sitting in the quiet carriage of a train, without earbuds! 😂
I’ll have to wait until I’m home to watch this 😮
😂
😍Fabulous! Thank you.
Dear Kathrin, I was so exaited to see whot is coming out. Lowe your work, thank you❤
Ooo, they’re lovely! (Clapping) 😂
😁
Everything came out beautifully! Love the background marbled look and the huge variety of colours from the rust.
Not owning any embroidery floss, I bought a pack of many colours - many of which are too bright so it's tea time! Great for sustainability.
Also, lovely memories of making pirate treasure maps with my son when he was little - we did it with just coffee and grounds.
The whole process is a voyage of excitement and the end result will be so worth the wait. Thank you Kathryn!
Mary x
hope your threads come out well, lovely treasure map memories ♥️
INSPIRED Indeed…..I will try to find the “rabbit hole” to try and star simple……Yes Bring on the Wonky Log Cabin project……early morning coffee here in the PNW is so much finer with You and Your Chums /Mates as I have heard them called across the pond…..
Wow love this. I enjoyed every bit of your dyeing. Thank you for sharing.
I enjoyed every bit of it!!
I really enjoyed that!! And I will definitely have a go at dying paper when temperatures get a bit warmer. Tea and cloth are not new to me. I save my used teabags and throw them in a tin with some damp cloth pieces. And after a day or 2 rinse and dry the cloth. Herbal, black, green or rooibos all leave different tones.
Love your work, thank you for showing us all the pretties!!❤
Thanks for sharing. I haven’t tried rust dying, I really don’t like rust even though my crafting and decor is rustic and prim, it was interesting to see though. I have done tons of tea/coffee dying for fabric though, but I never rinse my fabric. After having it in the tea or coffee mixture. I just hang them to dry and then use for whatever project I am making. I often add in some vanilla and anise extract to my mixture and it smells so good.
I have never dyed anything before, except my hair years ago lol Anyway thank you for showing us newbie’s how to begin a new chapter! I also follow Marion’s World and her new project starts with some rust/dyed strips. She suggested if we don’t have any that we could watch your tutorials and make some! I had just watched your videos so the timing was perfect!! I love both of your channels and eagerly awaiting each new video! Thank you again for all that you share with us!!
My pleasure, I haven't watched Marion's Wednesday video yet, hope to find time tomorrow, she is so lovely ❤️
Love it! I have a friend who rust dyes cloth. She used large gears and other industrial objects. Quite lovely and inspiring, even just the tea dyeing. I am big on over dying with pastel aqua & peony type colors but I totally dismissed tea color. Thank you! So pretty. 🌸🌿
Fantastic results, thanks for sharing the process with us. Love your channel!
Thank you Claire ♥️
Love all the results! TFS!
