They dry brown though. So I'd have to dye them if I wanted color. I probably won't. Though if I enjoy it, I might make more and play with natural dyes. I wonder if any plants in my garden are dyes.

Either way, I love it.<br /><br />It amazes me how your weather goes from freezing to scorching in no time. Or perhaps that's my skewed perspective because we've been enduring a rather long bout of foggy, cold, crappy weather. I've lost track of how long we've been in the grip of the drip.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07812702328134261533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-90497261895866278582015-05-28T21:51:38.802-04:002015-05-28T21:51:38.802-04:00I understand you want to work out the bugs, but I ...I understand you want to work out the bugs, but I hope you will share the process.

I'm drying some cattails now, so when they are done, I'll make another and hopefully that one will work.
