FWIW, Jaya, last night I was agonizing over which masks of my stockpile I should send to Bren¡¯s household. I was concerned because they were mostly ¡°girly.¡± Mark¡¯s comment was ¡°there¡¯s no ¡®girly¡¯ in protective gear.¡± I¡¯m not sure I agree, but there¡¯s a guy¡¯s perspective.
I dyed 6 masks last night after dinner. So far so good. The water rinsed clear and there are no colored drips on the rag I put under them to dry.?

I think they look weird because you can see the flowers overdyed with blue - the green leaves are sort of a lime color but not bright. The blue flowers are sort of purple - again you have to look closely at the fabric to tell. But they are blue from a distance.?

Once i get my next shipment of elastic, I am done with this,.

Today i am going to mark, stabilize (sew) and cut my hemp top out and baste the seams so I can try on for adjustment.
