Snow Dye

With all the snow we had this week I decided to take an advantage and try some snow dying. I have to admit that I'm no expert! I've only done this once before...

So... I prepared my fabric. Piled some snow on top of it with my dye powder. I used two different shades of yellow and one blue.

I wasn't the happiest with my results...

So I threw it back into my soda ash to soak, re-folded it... this time I used brown and applied it directly on the fabric. This way I could kinda sorta control where the color went.

Much better!!!

This is without the light coming through it.

During the first dye I had put some scraps of fabric in the bottom of the drip pan. I'm pleased with results!
