here is some info on your dyes...

batik dyeing also involves using a wax and a special tool. you might want to just use these as acid dyes since they are so old. be sure not to use any of your cooking utensils. you need to use designated dye pots and such...
Sounds like a busy week...I like entering your world via photographs.
You'll be getting more mail this week, so keep a lookout!
