Why you should always wash fabric
I found this delicious apron pattern yesterday, a free tutorial complete with printable pattern. I do loves my freebies. I want to make this for my niece as a Shower Tea gift, ooh and one for me too. Bought red/white and white/red spotted fabrics today. Click on photo for link.
With my washing machine looking like this at the moment, I was going to forgo the washing of the fabrics but had second thoughts, thankfully.
The below pictures were taken on the third rinse, after intial washing and 2 salted rinses. The salt is supposed to help set the colour. The below colour is good compared to the first wash, imagine about 10 shades deeper.
I've left it soaking while I enjoy this, a Soy Chai Latte.
