Bleaching in Whole Cloth Class *

I started with a yard of this turquoise cotton, cut it all up and bleached it today at school!

I can't choose my favourite, but I loved the effect the clothes pins make!!!!

I can't wait to try it with other colours!

When I was doing this today, all I could think about was taking my samples home and sewing them together. I'm thinking it will not be long before I have something made from my hand dyed and bleached fabrics!

A few examples of how I resisted the bleach from my fabric

The results :)
