dancingstitcher Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 What was so surprising with the snowball dyeing is the variety of colors in each piece with only three colors used. Where the dyes overlapped additional colors were formed. Since the excess dye drips through the netting and collects in the storage bin, the colors don't get muddy. I took these back to the hotel and washed them in Synthrapol one more time and the wash water was all pale pink so there was still some dye left after the first processing. I giggled all night just looking at them as I pressed them in my hotel room. Some fabric seem like they would be good for whole cloth quilting since the patterns of color are already so interesting and quite beautiful.

Tamarack Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Vicki I love your snowball dyed fabrics!!! They turned out great. I just started dyeing fabric this spring so haven't had a chance to try snowdyeing yet. We get A LOT of snow here so I'll have plenty of opportunities to try it this winter.
