Great shade of red, my DH would love it. Don't forget to post the finished results.

Looks great!!! I guess you know to make sure that the dye doesn't run with the first washing!

I needed red bandana print for a quilt with dogs on it. I went to Walmart and bought red bandanas. I really had to keep soaking them until they quit bleeding. They are thin but I found out if I starched them until they were stiff they were easy to work with. Plus, they're pretty big and I was cutting strips, too. Got a lot of strips from each and had a bandana left over for my dog to wear. Just a suggestion-thought this might be easier for you than dying them. Good luck-can't wait to see your finished project.

Did you die in the washing machine? I have a new front loader and not sure how that would work.

That is a great idea. It's going to be a cool quilt. Keep us posted.

What a great idea! (Make sure the dye is set in the fabric.) You could use LOTS of starch to make the bandanas behave better....We want to see the finished quilt. I think it will be amazing when you have finished it!!

i like the way the red took it kinda has a tie dye look which fits nice with the paisley i too have been considering using bandannas as my hubbie is a welder and wears headwraps and would love for our quilt to be bandanna print and can not find any anywhere if i find some it is usually one color and that is it and it is usually not black white or red as this is the colors i would like to use and since we have dogs not sure how well the bandannas would hold up
