Well, if you didn't insist on doing it at such a huge size, you'd need a lot less thread! At 1x1 on 32 count, I only need something like 2.2 skeins of thread.  Details Reply Post time 2013-5-12 11:33

LOL! Remember, I like 28 count, but I'm not picky  I'll take any fabric

I'm going to have to have a big sale and get some bigger thread counts so that I can see it!;P

I did that too I used crepepaper and a lot of salt and boiled the water with the cloth in it.
Then a lot of water to rinse it and than you have blue cloth. You can also put pieces of crepe paper on the cloth I think but never tried that.
