Better than Fireworks...


We will be marbling fabric at the guild meeting on July 19, 2007. There are several ways to accomplish this lovely effect: we'll be using fiber reactive dyes drizzled onto a bed a shaving cream, stirred, combed and mixed into unique patterns. We'll supply pre-treated fabric. You'll need to bring a can of shaving cream, preferably with aloe, and an old sheet cake pan or the lid off of a plastic storage bins. If you have bamboo skewers, hair picks, or the old fashioned rotary egg beaters, bring those along too. The fabric will still be wet when you take it home so bring some plastic wrap and a plastic bag. You won't want to miss out on the fun!
