Crap! Crappity crap crap crap

If only I was a swearing gal, as I'd be swearing now.

I'm home on sick day, so I thought I'd be semi-productive. Got pictures up on the website. Decided to wash my cross-stitch.

The snow family bled!!! Actually the hand painted linen bled and now the snow family is blue. Literally. It's soaking right now, and I'm swearing inside.

Gosh, now I'm sick physically and mentally, as that was over a 100 hours of work, and I'd hate it to go down the drain.

Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear that!! My fault -- I forgot to warn you that you should pre-wash the hand-dyed linen in case there's excess dye left!

I forgot to add that you might still be able to save your piece. See this article, for example: http://yarntree.com/081washing.htm
