About Us
My name is Amy and I started Oak Crown Studios in 2023 with the encouragement of
my family and at the urging of many wonderful friends and people in the flosstube community. I have been dyeing for my own use since approximately 2010. My educational background in chemistry has helped me as a dyer, but I have also sought out many opportunities over the years to take classes on different dyeing techniques and using many different materials and dyes. I love seeking out opportunities to learn more about my craft.
We cut all of our fabrics off of the bolt in standard fat quarter and fat halves. For Linen and lugana, this is approximately 18" x 27" and 27" x 36" prior to dyeing, respectively. For aida this is approximately 18" x 21" and 21" x 36" prior to dyeing, respectively. If you are interested in a fabric size you don't see here or a custom cut, please feel free to contact me, as we would be happy to oblige!
All fabrics are available as pre-order only. While we strive to dye and ship your fabric as soon as possible, please be aware that a wait of several months is common. Please contact me before ordering if you have questions about the wait time for a particular piece of fabric.
Different fabrics will take the dye differently. Linen and Aida typically dye much darker than Lugana. If you want to see a fabric that isn't shown on the site, please complete the contact form and I will dye a sample for you.
Please note that while every effort has been made to remove excess dye from the fabric before shipping, variables as simple as a different water source or a new water temperature can cause additional color bleeding. If you plan to wash your completed needlework, I strongly suggest you prewash your fabric and ensure there is no further bleeding before you begin, as we can not be held responsible for errors in washing and/or color bleeding.
When you buy from Oak Crown Studios you are buying high-quality fabrics and yarns dyed with top-quality dyes manufactured specifically for use on the fabric or yarn type being dyed. My family and I all appreciate you putting your trust in Oak Crown Studios for your next project.
