In today's Video: I needed a small piece of visually textured cloth for my Inspiration Patch that I created in my Stitch-A-Long recently. Quick thinking and a little Sludge and I had what I needed. Hope you give it a try. It's really great if you need a small piece of cloth FAST.

Genius idea. Today's quote: "Dont wait for people to be kind, show them how. Unknown. Huge hugs. Namesta 🐞🐞🐞

[@JeriBellini]

Love this one Lala! ❤️

[@julbea]

I’ve coffee dyed paper, but now you’ve inspired me to do up some muslin that I have for my next slow stitch project

[@JeriBellini]

Make sure your coffee is like a syrup, so you have to use instant. I've been doing it all week! and leave it in the sun to dry then rinse it. Have fun! ❤️

[@StitchAround]

Absolutely love how the circles faded a bit with the wash so they’re more abstract! Great fun!😊❤

[@JeriBellini]

I am loving this cloth! Have been using it every day in one thing or another! ❤️

[@maz3002]

I do a similar coffee drizzle method - I love it coz it's nice and easy!! I'm loving the results with rusty washers!! I've got a rusty metal chair which will be perfect for doing this 😘 Thanks so much for sharing ❤❤❤

[@JeriBellini]

You are so welcome! ❤️

[@carolynrockafellow417]

How cool I love this and all the ideas to use this. Thank you for sharing ❤

[@JeriBellini]

You are welcome! 💜

[@lesleymccallion2185]

This is great Jeri… so useful to have some techniques I can do quite speedily between other things so as always thankyou 🧡xxx

[@JeriBellini]

You are so welcome! ❤️

[@deborahmeyer-y4m]

Thank you, Jeri! I am going to try this fun idea.

[@JeriBellini]

I'm so glad! It's my go to when I don't have much time. ❤️

[@lorrainesept-drayer4390]

I've just been inspired to use all those small rusted metal bits (gears, cogs, bolts,washers etc.) that Ive been saving, that have been salvaged from around the farm! 😊

[@JeriBellini]

Go for it! It's QUICK good fun and if you don't like it, go over it with something. ❤️

[@leonasdesigns]

Love it!! The sun is shining here and I am going to try it right now!

[@JeriBellini]

Good!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@cre8tivelycreated26]

This is so cool!! I'll have to try it!! It's so hot out already that it won't take long to dry!! lol

[@JeriBellini]

The sun really does the trick! It's baked in. I imagine an iron would do something similar, set the color I mean. ❤️

[@toyamcclurkan2951]

This is so cool! I've done it before with black tea, but the colors from the coffee are so good. I may have to go see if the hubs has already cleaned out the French press...

[@JeriBellini]

It only works with instant, if that's what you have in your press you're golden! It's because it melts down, not like ground coffee which does not. ❤️

[@toyamcclurkan2951]

@@JeriBellini yeah, it wasn't very successful with the used grounds, but I got resourceful and used some black tea bags and my rusty bits and got some fun prints. I remembered something from ecoprinting about adding vinegar to make the iron react with the tea, so I splashed some over a stack of wet fabric scrap pieces in an old tray threw the tea bags on top and set the rusty stuff on top of that. I got some clear prints on the top pieces and some nice moody colors on the pieces on the bottom. And I didn't have to heat anything! This could get addictive!

[@suzywind8153]

Fantastic idea that I am going to try. Thank you.

[@JeriBellini]

Wonderful! 💜💜💜

[@marcijlo]

Jeri you are just a blessing! Thank you for this teaching, I am definitely going to play with some cloth and coffee! Easy! You look good and take care, keep moving with much love from across the pond❣️

[@JeriBellini]

Thank you! Have fun! ❤️❤️❤️

[@juliapace2845]

Lovely - Thank you

[@JeriBellini]

You are so welcome! ❤️

[@suzannegarcia9001]

Fun! Thanks ❤

[@JeriBellini]

You are so welcome! ❤️

[@k3n.clothtales]

Fabulous ❤

[@JeriBellini]

Right?! I don't know why I never shared this before, I've been doing it for years! LOL ❤️

[@k3n.clothtales]

And it was perfect timing because I have just recorded my Monday video as I am going away for a week and I have sent people to watch this 😁 so thank you ❤️

[@ljshaw8516]

I ice dye and it is a lot of work and hard on my arthritic fingers. I will give it a go for sure. Thanks for the inspiration, x's lj

[@JeriBellini]

I've never tried ice dying.... but my friend has and loves it. Find something else that doesnt hurt your hands and just keep moving! ❤️ Sending love

[@ljshaw8516]

@@JeriBellini But I am sort of addicted to the organic designs it creates and I have done 5 night gowns, several shirts, one pair of pants...etc. See I told you I am addicted to the results. No more tie dye for this aging lady! Maybe there's no help for me lol 🤣

[@user-jp3zi7lu8t]

Great way to age white linen & add texture. Thank you for sharing. 😊

[@JeriBellini]

You are so welcome! I love easy things! ❤️

[@carlacoogan3230]

Beautiful ❤️

[@JeriBellini]

Thank you! 😊 ❤️

[@brendafalk5162]

Love this! Thanks for sharing.

[@JeriBellini]

You are so welcome! ❤️❤️❤️

[@debzehr3244]

Oh my, Jeri. These are great. 💖💖💖

[@JeriBellini]

Seriously easy! Enjoy! ❤️

[@cookingjennfer]

Very cool. I don’t have rusty things but will try this anyway. I have coffee dyed cheesecloth before and love the look.

[@JeriBellini]

You don't need the rusty bits, I love it without, just wanted to show another option. Have fun, I know you will get great cloth to use in your sewing projects! ❤️

[@marymogckmishmashmary]

Thanks for the tip❣️

[@JeriBellini]

Any time! ❤️

[@alexandraalmeida3661]

Great tip! I’ve just saved the video and definitely going to try it, maybe in the next few days, because we’re having sunny weather. Thanks ♥️💙🤎🧡💜💛❤️🩷🩵💚🤍🤗🤗🤗

[@JeriBellini]

Have fun! You will love how easy it is! ❤️

[@cherylmacedo5521]

Very cool 🤍🤍🤍

[@JeriBellini]

Thank you! ❤️

[@cathywhitney8194]

Those are lovely Jeri! And the struggle is real with the critters wanted to dig in the flower pots. In my case, it's chipmunks.

[@JeriBellini]

I think I figured out a solution, FINALLY. Painted rocks and shells seem to be doing the trick! ❤️

[@cathywhitney8194]

Do you put them in the pots along with the plants?

[@JeriBellini]

@@cathywhitney8194 I put them on top of whatever dirt is showing, the rain/water can still get to the roots but the animals cant. It's worked great so far! ❤

[@invisible4445]

Thanks Jeri. Adding this to the never ending list!! LOL ❤

[@JeriBellini]

It's really so simple, I made those 2 pieces while my lunch was heating! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ It's so good to see you here!

[@RozWilloughby]

awesome...tfs

[@JeriBellini]

Thanks for watching! ❤️

[@OnedayDesigns]

Thank you for this. Would this work equally well with 100% cotton fabric?

[@JeriBellini]

Yes, absolutely! ❤️
