The group is listening intently to Karen's discussion on technique! Left to right we have Carol Vinick, Roz Spann, Diane Wright, Debby Bento Barb Adams, Cher Hurney and Janine Anderson-Bays. |
After lying a silk scarf on top of a piece of cotton Karen mists both fabrics with water. |
Next Karen adds Dye-Na-Flow to the silk. She uses either an eye dropper, sponge brush or mister to apply the dye. |
Here you can see how applying dye to the upper layer seeps into the cotton below creating a secondary design. |
The group is eager to get started and create something unique. Karen's sample pieces are hanging on the line. |
Carol Ludington and Carol Vinick get started with Debby Bento, Toni Torres and Cher Hurney looking on. |

Time to relax after a day of creating! The group agrees using Dye-Na-Flow products was quick and easy with the non toxic factor a bonus. |
