On Friday, we dyed some fabric at Claudia's house and the goal for each of us was to make a gradation of one color.
I picked Fushia.
Claudia picked Cayman blue
and Carollee and Chris picked Chartreuse and Yellow
We had to "dilute" the mixed dye again and again and ...again !
So we could have a fabric lighter and lighter and ...lighter !
Our 8 pieces of fabric were in different bags and we had to "massage" them several times and keep them in a cooler overnight, so they could stay at the same temperature
The next day .... Et voila !
Fushia
Chartreuse by Carollee
Thanks to Claudia for showing us the process, it was fun but kind of too long for me and now... what the heck am I going to do with this gradation of Fushia fabric ...!?
I'm expecting to see a wonderful art quilt with beautiful fushia colors.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone can figure out what to do with graduated Fushia fabric it's you!! Although, tell them you need graduated Fuscia batik! Becky
