Some dyeing results

I ended up not posting yesterday because Mom and I ran a lot of errands Monday and I had nothing interesting to shows for my efforts. Unless you think new deodorant and toothpaste is interesting! 
But, today I have a few dyeing results! Most things are still soaking but I have some of the gravity dyes  done.

If you are interested in gravity dyeing I recommend checking out Facebook and Youtube. There are so many ways to gravity dye and lots of tutorials. That's where I learned about it.

I wanted to do a sweatshirt for Ella but wanted to practice first to see if it would work on something so bulky. I did this one on a sweatshirt for me and, all in all, it worked good. That diagonal dark line is where it was scrunched up and placed on the rail. The dye and ice was put on that scrunched area so that as the ice melted, the dye dripped out to the edges. On this one I learned that I needed to compensate for the hood. It caught a lot of dye sprinkles and not a lot of drips. I'm still really happy with it.
​

This is the one I dyed for Ella and I'm really happy with it. I got the effect that I wanted. I hope she likes it. She's 11, so you never know! She will be sweet about it even if she doesn't like it. I will cut out her name in am iron-on vinyl so we can add that if she wants.
​

There are 3 boys and I dyed 3 tshirts for each. I know for sure that they will like the other 2 so I felt that I could take a rish with these. These are gravity dyed with the pole put through one sleeve and out the other. Apparently Sawyer and Lincoln like oranges. I don't know if they will like these but I'm also going to cut their names so that we can iron them on if they want. I do like this effect and would do it again. I'm just not sure it will appeal to young boys.

In the past few weeks I've stopped by a couple of Goodwill stores and picked up $2 frames. I spent part of yesterday afternoon getting them set up for some screen printing. They look a bit sloppy but they will work great.
​

I did this one last week to screen some bandanas for the kid's mothers. They both went to JMU. I absolutely love the Cricut for screen printing.

Today is sewing with my quilt club but I'll get more things washed out this evening to share with you tomorrow.
