This is a great resource. Saving theses tutorials for later, thanks Candy! Reminder: Be careful to NOT dye things that shouldn't be dyed. Like garage floors. Long story, many hours of clean up.

I just finished my first dye batch with just 2 gradations for each color. I did a purple, green and orange/coral as well. Some of the pieces turned out splotchy with the color not very evenly distributed, so I'll have to figure out what I did wrong. Overall, I'm very pleased and ready for another try. Thanks so much!

That's one of the reasons I wrote the tutorial I did; you can do soooo much with those 3 dyes, I recommend starting with those! Seanna: yup, I started with the 3 primaries.

When you were starting, did you just buy one or two die colors? When I was painting, I was told that to start I only needed to buy 3 or 4 colors of paint and I was wondering if die was similar in that fashion.
