More Bleach Discharge

These are some pieces that I made about a month ago, but have been so behind in blogging....
These were done a little differently than my process before. I used circles and leaves as "masks" and sprayed bleach on the fabric to get a resist effect.


These were folded and then the edges were dipped in bleach. Lots of different shapes you can get with folding.


This one was a shibori wrap that discharged a little too quickly! It is mostly brown, rather than its original black. Subtle, but a neat pattern.


Now I've just got to DO SOMETHING with it!

I always say I am going to give this technique a try and what do I do? I dye more fabric! One day soon I will give it the all out effort.

Love these. The bottom one almost looks like feathers.
