I have been blogging around and find pastel colors are the most likely when using natural dyes. Interestingly, the Scotts and Irish had a plant that produced a saffron color in linen, so much so that the English wondered how they were getting saffron.
My purpose is the focale. I shy away from burlap and find linen really nice to my skin.
Madder and cherries produce a variety of reds and pinks. Woad produces a light blue. Bright yellows are possible, too.
