Dye Session 1 









First night I did the rosa and turmeric. I also dyed a shirt in the turmeric after the cloth since it didn't matter if I contaminated it.

I also wouldn't mind making a pocket out of a pre dyed piece on a white shirt, along with adding some screen prints to each piece. This is the graphic Id like to use, its from a 1963 mickey cartoon. Possibly do something like this with mickey behind a dyed pocket I add to the shirt. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvfV9Ps8l74&list=LLcjyx8yPJca_W3PZwBttIvg&index=2&t=27s ^^^^ There are a few techniques I may try from this video as well.

This was a triangle style logwood dye. I let it simmer on low heat in the dye bath for 2 hours, really happy with how this one came out.  This was a solid madder dye with a rojo splatter pocket. This was a rojo ice dye, I like how it came out but think I needed to use a lot more ice. The dye was still very concentrated at the top after 3 layers of ice had melted over it.
