I'm from a small College town in Northern California that was left back in the 60's and 70's. free love, hippies, [eace signs, herbs, and saving the earth are big here and lots of our fabric is made locally with natural dyes. onion skin, flowers, herbs, and teas. all should be bleed safe if taken care of but..... the next town over has JoAnnes fabrics that could be washed and dried without too much thought. opinions?
