Steaming Silk Scarves 

I came to look at how silk was painted with dyes, but I learned so much more !! This is a top rate video. You told the important things to do, and to avoid, but didn't just prattle on about things that would have been a waste of time. You are a remarkable teacher, and a wonderful artist, and you have my sincere thanks. Well done !! xoxo

Thank you so much for detailed video. Your a great teacher as you explained the complex process step-by-step. Good work!

The salted technique really brings out the colors on the silks.

Linda you do a great job explaining things - thanks

Linda! You just made my day!! Thank you for sharing your craft...

Those Scarves are gorgeous ! thank you so much fo sharing your knowledge. All the information given is easy to understand! Thank you !

Beautiful scarves.

Very beautiful, you can see the shimmer just fine. Great job...

Loved your video! Thank you for sharing. Had no idea scarfs should be steamed of all things! Wow. A lot of work goes into one scarf!

Thank you so much! The video is wonderful and answered many of my question about steaming. I won't be afraid to do it now!

Loved it all, thanks you're videos are well done!

I just love your work! Your videos are done so well ! I’m just starting to dye and pa int on silk .

Very useful videos. Thank u so much for sharing

I really enjoyed the information you taught us all here. I've been considering taking my photography of our western ranching lifestyle and incorporating it into this sort of thing. I'm not sure how I am going to do it. But since we all wear silk wild rags in our work and dressing up (men & women both), it popped into my head that this can be done. I am training in my fine print making myself (inkjet only as of now), but I see the possibilities. I joined your FB group. Thank you so much for the shared info here and the inspiration you have given me!

Great video thank you! I was interested in dyeing but now I am inspired.

Thank you so much Linda - I have never used the steaming method but you've taken my fear away. Your scarves are gorgeous!! Thank you!!!

Hi Linda .. Such a helpful video really , thanks a lot .. Greetings from Egypt 💕💕💕

Very informative Thank you

I enjoyed your video. It was very informative to get to see how this steamer works. Have you done a video on the vertical steamer? Thank You Kathleen Martell

Beautiful scarves Linda. I would love to try silk dyeing. I live in France and haven't found anywhere that stocks DuPont dyes. You have inspired me thank you so much.

I love them

Very nice

Very very nice

I would live to do this for gifts for people .

Thank you very much for sharing! Would love to see more videos! Shlomit

SUPER!

que bellezas!!!! haces cosas hermosas

Hi Linda, I loved your work, many congratulations, I'm starting a job in this area of ​​fabric painting. You can send me how the vaporization of echarps is done, how it's done. A kiss and thank you for sharing. God bless you.

Thank you for this informative video. I bought the steamer, and the descriptions are so cryptic that I felt quite insecure. Now with your video, I feel ready. The only question I have right now: what do you do with the leftover water and the wax in it?

Hi Linda, I'm a new subscriber and would like to know where to buy the steamer from. Thanks so much your work is inspiring and beautiful.

Have you ever tried wrinkling a piece deliberately before steaming to see what the effect would be?

Fine mam

Where do you buy your paper? What type of steamer do you use? Love your work!! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for showing me your process. Is there any other way to steam the scarfs if you don't have the nifty steamer you have

Wonderful video. Inspiring. I would love to try this. Where can I purchase the silk scarves?

Hello Linda, after watching your video I have decided to buy the steamer and I should receive it soon. I was just wondering what paper exactly are you using. I live in the UK and I rather buy it here than pay for the shipping from the US. Thank you for your video =)

Hi, thank you so much for your inspirational video Does anyone know where can I get a silk steamer?

Linda, thank you for your video! Where can I buy the steamer you have? Dharma has one different than yours. thank you,

Do you use a dry or steam iron with your spray bottle and what kind of tape do you use when rolling in paper?

I am considering buying a steamer. You mentioned that you have both a vertical steamer and the stovetop as seen in the video. Please compare the two more thoroughly. I was surprised that you praised the stovetop model over the other. Since I have a gas stove in my kitchen, I would have to buy some kind of burner. What do you recommend? Thank you for any advice.

Hey, Really nice the video. I am starting to print and paint in silk but I don’t have a steamer ... do you know other ways of steaming single pieces without a steaming machine ?

Dear Madam, Your scarves are very, very nice. I'd love to buy a few pieces to live where you are. I watched you do it from start to finish.

Thanks for the video, it’s really helpful. I’ve just bought an upright steamer. The problem is that I have a collection of hand painted silk scarves that are waiting to be steamed and they’re all creased up! From watching your clip I see that they should not be rolled with creases. I don’t want to iron them before steaming as I’ve been told this will affect the silk detrimentally. Is there a way of removing creases without ironing that you recommend? I’d be grateful to have your advice. Jane

hi Linda I am trying to find a silk steamer. l like your steamer and I wanted to know where did you get your steamer made from? Thanks Chitra

Is it just water in the sprayer when your ironing?

its really beautiful but I would like to know what type of steamer is it and where can one get it from? Thanks

What is the dye u use and how do u use the dyes? Dyo u use procion dye?

Hi Linda, Im trying the salt resist technique on silk but using procion dyes, the pattern is coming up lovely but then as soon as i rinse it the salt effect disappears, the dye remains, Ive tried ironing it before washing, is it just because im using the wrong dye? Any advise appreciated xx

Can you tell me the name of electric steamer and where to buy it. I steam at home in a different way and It lasts 9-10 hours for me to fix the colours. IT is too much compared to 2-3 hours with this machine. Thank you very much for the answer.

Hi Lidia! Beautiful scarves! I’m just a beginner. Pls. How to prevent the bleeding at the edges.? Thank you!

Can I steam a scarf after a washed it and ironed it? I steamed mine for 2 hrs, and after a washed some colors still coming out.

Oh, my god, beautiful, i love you

How would I do the steaming with a vertical steamer?

hi linda, i went to unitedmfrs.com to check out the paper - just curious if you use the 40 lb or the 50 lb paper? and do you use the 36” wide paper roll with your horizontal steamer? thanks so much! julia

Is Steam Compulsory?

Hi , where can I buy that steamer ?

I want to buy your scarves, where can I get them???

Do the scarves have a woven floral design in them? I can't tell if they do or if it is the dye effect.
