It was Sharpie Tye-Dying. In other words making a tye-die effect using Sharpie Marker Pens. There was a great step-by-step tutorial (see link) which I was able to follow and this is what I have done on a cotton shopping bag so far:
I actually spoiled the circles I started because I thought they were too pale so added some more colour to them - oops! I think I will cover the bag with more circles - and this time leave well alone! (you live and learn!)
Here were the work in progress shots:
It is very satisfying watching the colour spread out from the middle!
Thanks for looking,
See you tomorrow,

Mmm I like these, I'm thinking make them, cut them out, layer them up and make some really cool flowers for brooches, etc.. Great work. Jaqui x
