Hand Dying/Painting Aida

Post by PinkPoodle »

I'm interested in trying this, but what kind of dye and paints do you use? Watercolor, acrylic, Rit fabric dye? Any help is appreciated!

I personally haven't done it yet (though I'm thinking of dying some with green tea in the near future), but as for painting aida, I've seen this amazing tutorial which I believe a couple of people here on the forums have used before.

Thanks! I wanted to make some that looks like parchment with a blood stain for a project I'm working on.
