I’ve shown you some of my fabric dyeing challenges, as well as over-dyed corrections. But, sometimes everything comes out exactly as I had hoped. This little scrap is one such example.
I made it with a two step process. First, I scraped dye through a stencil in a couple places. Then, I cleaned my squeegee and used the same dirty stencil for another couple of pulls with clear paste. The clear paste prints the little bit of dye caught in the crevices, resulting in a ghost image. I just love the delicate effect!
Here’s a detail shot.
Don’t you love the effect?
