Customer Comment

I just wanted to thank you and let you know that the Logwood I purchased from you was wonderful. This is the first time I have worked with natural dyes, and I must say from this experience forth, natural dyes will be the only thing I will use. Thank you for turning me on to the theraputic artistry of natural dyeing.
Best regards,
Shari Strmac, SewBlue, LLC

"This is the finest quality Logwood I have used in all my 30 years of professional natural dyeing. SOAK overnight before extracting. Quite strong: good purples with 4 oz or less per pound of fibre."– Cheryl Kolander, Master Natural Dyer
