Oh Carrie in PA, that's beautiful! I love the fresh, fruity colors!

Thanks, ckcowl for all the good info. Are there certain types of dyes to look for when shopping?

I'm also interested in painting fabric for quilting. I used some fabric pens last year to decorate some muslin, cocktail napkins for my daughter's wedding. I did some pretty drawings of mushrooms on them. (The wedding had a foresty theme.) I was going to take them home afterwards and make a quilt out of them, but the guests took them all home...LOL. Oh well, at least they were a big hit. Anyway, the few that were left washed up beautifully and didn't run at all. I'd like to incorporate the same idea into a quilt. Maybe I'll give it to my Dau and SIL as an anniversary gift when it's done.
