Theres also a website called Silkweaver that has dyed fabrics. They used to have great deals on leftover pieces for great prices, but I think that part is Under Construction now. Ive also bought some at pretty good prices on Ebay.

I wish someone could help with this.I also live in a country where I cant get dyed fabric and would love to do it myself.

Thanks for the links - I would love to try this, even though I mostly stitch patterns that are full coverage. I guess Ill have to find one that isnt so that I can try dying my fabric!

Mostly they are bought (silk Weaver etc) but can easily do browns with coffe or tea (fix with salt) or use PIGMENT acyrilic paint diluted in hot/warm water.
