I am suffering a crisis of confidence. I can dye fabric. I haven't for a few months, but how hard can it be to return to something I have been doing for years. It seems it can be very hard.
My lovely pale lemon cotton poplin (3.5 metres) is bright yellow. Sigh.
I know that if I had wanted bright yellow, most of the dye would have rinsed out and I would have wishy washy. This blooming fabric will not pale.
I see a large yellow project in my future.
** I now do have a lovely pale (ish) lemon piece of fabric. My quilt will be backed in exactly the right colour. However I do have a scrummy bright yellow and orange piece of fabric to play with.

Grrrrr! to the strong colour. Yay! to the yellow project, sounds intriguing. See you Wednesday :-)
You love yellow! I refuse to believe this is not fabulous without a photo...
Sounds like sod's law/murphy's law to me! If it's something very important, I will mess it up. if not, all goes swimmingly.
