SNOW DYEING

Our list mom at STITCHMAP, Shari, came up with a suggestion on how to use the snow so many of us were innundated with - Snow Dyeing.  This was so much fun.  I took some fabric, scrunched it up, covered it with snow, and drizzled food coloring over the top.


This was a lot of fun, and the fabric looked great after the snow melted.  Then, I put them in the microwave to heat set the color.  3 minutes was WAY too long.  I ended up with a charred mess and an unholy stink in the house. 

Oh well, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
