Your design looks absolutely beautiful....quite ethereal. One question though, does using bleach weaken the fabric at all, and would the whitened areas yellow after time? Sorry, that's two questions, but I am a bit bleach phobic....

Earthwalker, Dharma Trading sells a product that stops the bleach and prevents problems.

I've used the Clorox gel cleaners before - they stay in place well. I'm always surprised with black - some brands come out purple or bluish, depending on the colors they mixed to get black.
I love that thread painting, it turned out great!

Stunning!!! Gorgeous!!! Original!!!! :D :D :D
You have inpired me to try this now!!! 8) 8) 8)
I have used bleach to reverse tye die 100% cotton sweatshirts and tshirts...they were not treated with any chemical and have held up well in the washer and dryer for 5 years now... so I would have to assume that using a product to neutralize the bleach would help the fabric last even longer :wink:
