Dyeing for Fabrics Challenge
Finished Size: Your choice Due Date: October 9, 2018
Completed Requirements: Must use fabric that you dyed during our “Dying for Fabric” workshop,
held on February 14, 2018.
The edges must be finished but can be bound, faced, stitched over or edge trim…just no raw edges.
Other: You are totally unrestricted in your design, and execution, meaning you may paint, stamp,
resists and/or otherwise manipulate your fabric.
You may embellish to your heart’s content-no restrictions on dimensional embellishments.
That being said, please understand that any of the above-mentioned design ideas
are NOT mandatory for your project.
Note: you may submit your project to Lauree prior to October 9.
