As promised yesterday in part one of the how-to, here’s the finished fabric:

It’s a softer, slightly mottled shade of coral – much more flattering now! It’s almost impossible to create a totally solid shade, you can end up with anything from a dramatic marbled tie-dye to soft waves of color.
Generally, the more you stir, the more even the fabric will turn out
I think this particular piece of fabric is going to end up as a shirt. It’s a lovely lightweight cotton and should be great when it finally warms up around here!















that is so much nicer than the bubblegum pink!
Looking forward to seeing the new blouse!
I didn’t leave a comment yesterday because I wanted to see how it came out. I had my doubts. LOL! Very nice. I too look forward to seeing the finished shirt.
Thanks for the helpful tips. I’ve made some real messes trying to dye my own fabric. The photos are very helpful.
