OMG! I love Ice Dyeing

I attended the CREATE 2014 Retreat again this year.  I was only able to take one class since I was in Ohio at the HOOT Convention.  I took a fabulous fabric dyeing class called Snow & Ice Dyeing with Cindy Lohbeck of Hands On Hand Dyes.  Below are the fat quarters I dyed.  I can't wait to make more.

I did this purple with the leftover dye on the bottom of the bin.

I've started to dabble in a little sewing, too. This is a Four Corners Apron I made.  I had to search the internet for the chicken wire fabric, but it really made the apron!

PROJECTS FROM CREATE 2012

Here's my projects from the CREATE Retreat I attended in August.  This was the Shabori class I took.  It's amazing what you can do with a can and some string.  I used Setacolor fabric paints by Pebeo.  I really like these paints.  It's the first time I used them.

I also did Batik with Soy Wax.  That was a real fun class.  I never realized how many marks you can make with everyday items.  Can you guess what they are?

That snowflake looking pattern in the upper right-hand corner is the bottom of one of those plastic strawberry baskets.  I stamped a yard of fabric with that pattern and I'm going to paint it with Cobalt Blue for a great wintery themed fabric.

Below is my fabric from the Create Your Own Fabric class.  These were created with the Setacolor by Pebeo and Silks Acrylic Glaze by LuminArte .

This piece is going to be made into a pillow.
