Newest Ice Dyed T Shirt

We had incredible rain, thunderstorms and lightening Saturday night.  It sounded like the sky was cracking into pieces.  In Paso Robles we received almost three inches of much needed rain.  Unfortunately, some people had flooding of water and mud.  We didn't have electricity for awhile and no internet until late yesterday evening.

Here is a picture of my latest ice dyed shirt.  It is a j jill shirt which flairs out slightly.  It has a nice drape to it, but its shape looks a little odd in the picture.  I did a different kind of folding for this one that resulted in the mirror image design.

Above is a closeup.

Hand-dyed T Shirts

I'm getting ready to sell some fabrics, T-shirts, scarves, books, etc. at our next Almond Country Guild Meeting, where for $10, members can rent a table to sell their "Trash to Treasures."  Everything I'm selling are treasures, its' just that I have too many of them.  I have discovered over the last few years that I enjoy dyeing fabrics and wearables probably more than making them into quilts, even though I enjoy that as well.  So I have accumulated a lot of arashi and itajime shibori fabrics, along with some T-shirts and scarves which will be for sale at the March meeting.  I'm also selling some great quilt books that I no longer use but will hopefully be a treasure to someone else.

All the T shirts are 100% cotton, machine washable and can be thrown in the dryer.
 The shorts sleeved ones are $20 each and the one long-sleeved on is $25.
  Not bad for a one-of-a-kind wearable.  This one is an ice-dyed shirt.

This shirt is part arashi (tied resist) and part itajime (clamped shape resist) 

This shirt is also an ice-dyed one.  I think the patterns resemble flowers.

This shirt reminds of patterns found in marble.
