Dyeing Fabric
#1
Have you tried dyeing your own fabrics? I just took a class last Tuesday and I thoroughly enjoyed the class. I came home with so many beautiful colors of dyed fabric. Now my daughter and granddaughter want to dye some fabric too. I will have to post pictures of some of the fabrics when we get more dyed. My daughter wants to dye a multi color piece for the backing of a quilt she is working on. So, let us know if you have dabbled in this and show some of your results. Thanks

I have been dabbling with the Rit dyes. What kind did you use? I wanted to be sure I liked doing this before I invested in more expensive dyes and stuff. I love watching the different colors come out, tend toward light shades for background colors, have enough solids and want to get away from black white or cream backgrounds which I always use.
