I enjoy doing all kinds of fabric arts and I really enjoy sharing them when I can. Last weekend we invited several families over and had a tie dye party. As has been said many times before by other people, when you teach something, you also learn. For the party, I looked at several Youtube videos to broaden my tie dye design skills. I can recommend videos by colorfulsteve such as this one on how to tie dye a heart design. If you try to dye a shape, be very careful to fold your fabric in a straight line. This is easier if your shape is large and bold. Steve suggests outlining your shape with a dark color. This suggestion helps your shape have definition.
