Never tried dyeing fabric but would like to - just haven't had the time to try it. You did a great job!

I'm just running out of my own dyed fabric. Yours are lovely and so many . I use a cotton for dyeing forgot its name. I loved the mottled effect of mine as well.
My problem is, no matter how hard I try I always end up with very colourful hands.

I have also coloured hands after dyeing. Last time I didn't used gloves. But it is gone in three days so it's acceptable for me.

You did a fantastic job in dying the fabric, like them all but the last fabrics really is my favorite.

Beautiful spectrum of colors. Did you need to use a setting solution to set the dies so they wouldn't bleed?

No I didn't. I rinsed the fabrics twice. One time by hand and one time in the washing machine. Then I washed the fabrics with a normal program on the washing machine. And then I ironed the fabrics dry. The fabrics won't bleed.
