I will never touch the stuff again!
Yuk, I hate when that happens. I was looking at a site last night which might be useful to some of you they sell the most unusual threads and ribbons, just type in shibori dragon. Lovely fabrics as well although not so cheap as some sites. Gorgeous hand dyes batiks though.
Elle, I'm not going to look - I'm not going to look - I'm not going to look. Oh hang it, I probably will.
I haven't seen any mention from Molly, so I hope all went well, and she can hobble to the computer sometime soon to catch up with us.
.........I looked.

Thankfully, I didn't see any hand dyed batiks - not sure where they were, so I am safe for now.
