I'm dying

Or maybe not.
Dying is when you cease to live. "I'm going to die. I'm dying." What is the verb when you're using dye? Is it still dying? It doesn't look right to me, but neither does dyeing. Although spellcheck says that both are correct (although the word "spellcheck" is apparently not a word). Grammar Nazis? Anyone?


Anyway, I got to dye some fabric last night for my upcoming spring line. However, I was hoping for a nice fresh apple green but what I got was more of a celery. Very pretty but it doesn't match my inspiration fabric, and it doesn't go well with the red, pink and blue I want.


Oh well, more dye shopping.

  1. You make me giggle.

    Yes, your dyed color is nice but not the lovely chartreuse you were dreaming of. Maybe this will be closer??
