    I've done something similar using unsweetened kool aid packets and silk scarf blanks (to make play silks). It worked really well. My boys still have some and they have hardly faded after almost 2 years!

    I have to save this and go back and ready it later. Sounds like a great idea!

    I wasn't sure what it was either, but a search brought some information, try this: http://www.pburch.net/dyeing/FAQ/sodaash.shtml it's interesting!
    Thanks craftybear for the information, I'd like to try this!
