    Red face Fabric Dyeing class

    I taught a class on Fabric Dyeing and it was a success! I had six students and we laughed and had a good time as we made a 29 fat quarters different colors.

    I'm thinking about teaching another class. Everyone in my class said it was a hit and they loved the hands on experience.

    Thanks for the input and encouragement members gave!

    Know just what you are talking about FUN! Several years ago a couple of friends and I got together, threw the kids in the pool and then dyed away. We pooled (ha ha) our money and ended up with over 7 yards each of fabric in every shade immaginable. Was a great day before their hubbies and them shipped out across the world

    Yes, I have been there done that and still have fabric left. Everytime I look at it it brings back fond memories of the dyeing process.

    I'm just starting to dye fabric,I have studied the videos and have my ink, for some time ,while I was waiting for my DH to fix my pan so I could get started and Ijust picked it up today,after having some one to finish it, I don't think the weather is going to corporate this coming week.
    I don't know if we are talking about the same type of fabric dying? I guess what I'm going to do is fabric marbling I went to a class when there was a sewing/quilting expo in springfield Mo.
