Hi, I have been playing with bleach discharge making yardage for quilts and wallhangings. Hope to inspire some surface design quilters.

That's really nice! I like it! :D
|
Let me get this straight ... You are painting on bleach to cause the design to happen, and then thread art?
This is very nice indeed! Thought provocing. |
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....

Oh Wow! That is amazing! I LOVE it!!!

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

I love it.

That looks great! What a clever idea.

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: |
COOL
