my Luella top that I dyed pearl grey using liquid rit dye and water in a bucket surprisingly came out perfect, the fabric was from joanns it is a cotton rayon with flocked flowers. The brownie pant in striped cotton seersucker.
This is lovely, I think the Luella is getting a lot of use lately! I have seen other list posts with this pattern. I have Luella on my sew list but not there yet! I dye (and experiment dye) in buckets too.... :)
Pearl gray is one of my favorite colors. I use the washing machine.
I use two big buckets. It would mess up my washer.
@merfaerie RIT has instructions for top and front loaders. I assure you my washer is fine. 😃
I love your Luella. The looser ruffle is so great, and your dye job really transformed the fabric.
How long is your ruffle? I really like the way the reduced ruffle looks.
Thanks 7 inches gathered and stitched under and topstitched don't like a lot of flounce.
Thank-you been wearing it all day really comfy and cool.
