OMG, I live in the lake effect snow belt of upstate NY and have lots of snow. I have never heard of snow or ice dying before; what a waste of 5 to 7 feet of snow every winter. LOL
I am eager to read the tutorial as I have a good amount of white fabric and I don't like using white in my quilts. This will be a great way to make the white more appealing!

Kathy the "shaving cream" sounds interesting would you let us know more about?

wildwoodflower12390, I used 2 colors. One was lapis and turquoise and on a second piece I used french blue and indigo. I've found that the process works best with 2 to 3 colors and rarely use more than 3...more than that just tends to muddy up. Here 's some snow dye pieces that I did several years ago. I'll try to get some ice dye images up too...they are much brighter.
