But I can't, I just poured water into a tub trug, added a good squirt of bleach and dunked the fabric in, pushing it down and stirring from time to time with a washing up brush. I then went back every twenty minutes/ half an hour or so and re-stirred it. After about five or six hours I looked to see what had bleached out.Kandy Newtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18013641598911360148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698884056621941492.post-38256696388683432722010-02-05T17:34:16.187+00:002010-02-05T17:34:16.187+00:00i'd like to try bleaching - what proportions o...i'd like to try bleaching - what proportions of bleach to water did you use??<br />gillGillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02608760953744169322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698884056621941492.post-16183772528419680992010-02-04T13:40:54.054+00:002010-02-04T13:40:54.054+00:00This experiment looks exciting.

I tend to use them in backing on my calendar blocks from last year, or cut them tiny and they disappear in another design. I could try the bleaching option.Pascalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06278744410478339073noreply@blogger.com
