I started with a pale orange and used fabric dye pens for most of it. I used both the large fabric marker type and the narrow point ones. The only problem I had was trying to cover the streaks up. I dampened in places and just kept re- applying more dye. I is a little more red than the picture shows.

Very pretty!

Wow, I love it! Can you explain it to us more how you did it? Maybe you could post it under tutorials. Awesome poppy!
