Solid Black with Bleach Discharge This is my first attempt at shibori discharge. Using a diluted solution of household bleach I wrapped our Solid Black rayon on a PVC pipe, tying it as tightly as I could. This is very time- consuming! When I was ready to discharge the fabric I applied the the bleach solution to the fabric with a foam brush. As soon as I could see the color being removed I quickly immersed the whole thing in vinegar-water. This stopped the discharge process and hopefully set the color. I was so pleased with the result - a gorgeous coppery gold color in an intriguing print. My thanks to my good friend Ursula Bentz of Gibsons, BC for showing me shibori! I have a whole new respect for this wonderful dye process. Now...what should I make with this.....????? |
