From one to another

The last attempt at dyeing got me real excited. Kept me pondering how I can create more with less. Finally struck me, I should not be thinking too hard. Instead of dyeing the whole piece of fabric, maybe I should just concentrate on the part which showcase the biggest area. After all, the rest of the fabric will be twisted. But how do I make sure that it is the area that I need? Remembered that I saw in Ryan's recent blog (Fundoshi Advertisements) that show a fundoshi with a slit in the middle to hold it in place. Maybe this will work. In my excitement to get started, I accidentally cut the tee shirt wrongly and had a much narrower strip of fabric. Decided to go ahead and still used it as I was still experimenting to see if it will work. This time instead of tie dyeing, decided to just use the pen to draw out as I did like the carp drawing fundoshi on Ryan's blog. Google some designs and finally came up with this. Which ended up looking more like butterflies than dragonflies.
