I had a scrap of PFD fabric and thought I would try a little Tye-painting. I pulled up and gathered sections of fabric then wrapped string around each one to secure it. When tied these looked like fingers sticking up. I then painted different colors around each section and also painted the ends with a different color. I used Setacolor paints diluted with about 50% water. I had to really push the paint into the folds and you can see that there still is quilt a bit of white. I let it dry for a couple of days and then carefully cut away the strings and ironed the fabric. I have an idea in mind to use this little piece and I am happy with the results. Give this a try it was really fun.

Pretty! And so many possibilities!
That is so beautiful, great job.
Totally FUN! Reminds me of fireworks (and that's a nice thing to bring warmer days to mind!)
Looks like great fun. I might have to experiment with it as well.
Thanks for your comments. I will do this again.
What a great idea! I'm going to have to try it. Thanks for sharing.
