Snow Dye



Here are the results of the first snow dye. The colors are quite pastel but I love the mottled effect. There will be more.

Very nice. How exactly did you do it?

These turned out quite well. BTW, I like your new profile photo. Just keepin' us on out toes, huh?

They are very pretty. We need pastels as well as dark or our quilts would have no contrast.

Oooh! Very cool! (Ha...no pun intended!) I wasn't expecting them to be so soft in color. Hope to see more!

I'd like to know how you did this too... since we still have lots of snow. This would definitely make winter more interesting!!

Donna said...

great mottling! this technique sure seems to lend itself to that

I'm so not looking at the snow dye. Not even one tiny bit. I can't add dye to my birthday wish list when I have already added the Quilter's Playtime book because of your site.
If I had looked, I would love how the yellow makes a sunburst around the pink at the top center of the photo.

The snowdyed fabrics are lovely. How did you do it? (I don't think there'll be enough snow left here to try it, but you never know!)
