Painting Aida!

I'm going to try this on a small piece..how perfect! I have some off white that I don't really like that I got from my aunt..It looks dirty if it's not bright white or an actual color..if that makes sense lol

so I can do this..easier than dying and rinsing..etc.

anyone tried this before?

That looks interesting - I haven't tried this but I did once use fabric paint quite successfully. :D

What a great idea I have a tone of white fabric that I don't use because it is so boring. I am definitely going to look for this stuff and give it a try. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Sounds really interesting. Have bookmarked the link and may just look at getting plain old white fabric to experiment on :D
