I am also an Artisan of traditional crafts using porcupine quills, moose hair, fish scales... recently have been asked to do a replica of a fire bag from the 1800s. To try and be accurate to the time period I am using 100% wool, cotton, silk... The problem I am having is I need to dye the cotton lining and I am looking for natural dyes that I can purchase. I would also like to use natural dyes for my quills, moose hair and fish scales. Do you sell natural dyes? and if so how can I purchase some?
