Recently I had some friends from my Cutting Edge Group come over to do some parfait ice dyeing, which is a process where you stack one piece of fabric over another adding dye and ice to each one and squish them into a container. As the ice melts the fabric get bits of dye from the pieces above and below them.
Above is my table with lots of tools and materials and a sample piece.
Here is a shirt I made for hubby.
My friend Kate gave me a lovely piece of silk to dye.
Above is a piece I folded and clamped prior to dyeing.
The piece above was just gently scrunched up and dyed.
Lovely pieces! I haven't ice dyed in awhile, but do love the color separation that happens with the dye powders... sounds like a fun day!
