If you want to maintain a bit of the whiter fabric (it will still get somewhat rusty I'm guessing) try draining it. Experiment and have fun!Linda Kittmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14050477037091909816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4605325099709553503.post-89073761223666746532013-01-29T01:45:03.385-05:002013-01-29T01:45:03.385-05:00I just found your rust dyeing article the other da...I just found your rust dyeing article the other day Linda. I wrapped a piece of rusty log chain in a white cotton towel just this evening. I added half water and half vinegar. Did you drain the liquid off after the fabric was soaked? Or do you leave the liquid on it the entire time?Cheryl Mhttp://cherylmccainphotography.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4605325099709553503.post-9539208357885596762013-01-12T09:38:55.043-05:002013-01-12T09:38:55.043-05:00Tee Hee...Is this duplicate message a sign of agin...Tee Hee...Is this duplicate message a sign of aging or a computer glitch?

I know it's touch on needles and it's surprising how out machines react when our needles get dull. Maybe I'll plan to do more hand stitching on this piece as Penny did.Linda Kittmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14050477037091909816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4605325099709553503.post-60509092837481316072013-01-11T19:11:15.909-05:002013-01-11T19:11:15.909-05:00The fabric looks fabulous but be careful to only u...The fabric looks fabulous but be careful to only use your machine on the non- heavily rusted sections. I found that my trusty Bernini started making a horrible noise that was completely eliminated when I started sewing on regular quilting cotton. No permanent damage but I think that the metal dulls the needle and that what was the real reason for the noise.
