Mike Hills will present a program on herbal dye plants that he helped Jane Haynes prepare and present to the Herb Society of America Annual Meeting in 2006. Great details and information on the history of plants used for dyeing fabric, leather, basketry, etc. Many of Jane's beautiful plant-dyed samples will be on hand for discussion and observation. Jane has made a study of the colors that can be created from our Arizona garden and native plants, since she moved here in the 1970's. With the aid of mordants, and the proper natural materials, the range of colors available will astound you.

Dyeing is the process of adding color to textile products like fibers, yarns, and fabrics.[1] Dyeing is normally done in a special solution containing dyes and particular chemical material. After dyeing, dye molecules have uncut chemical bond with fiber molecules. The temperature and time controlling are two key factors in dyeing. There are mainly two classes of dye, natural and man-made.
The primary source of dye, historically, has generally been nature, with the dyes being extracted from animals or plants. Since the mid-18th century, however, humans have produced artificial dyes to achieve a broader range of colors and to render the dyes more stable to resist washing and general use. Different classes of dyes are used for different types of fiber and at different stages of the textile production process, from loose fibers through yarn and cloth to completed garments.
Acrylic fibers are dyed with basic dyes, while nylon and protein fibers such as wool and silk are dyed with acid dyes, and polyester yarn is dyed with disperse dyes. Cotton is dyed with a range of dye types, including vat dyes, and modern synthetic reactive and direct dyes

Dyer Park sunset in West Palm Beach, FL. This image was extraordinarly difficult to blend. Ended up blending with a Digital blended picture (2 exposures), and an HDR.
About a half a mile away there is a garbage dump and it had the weather gauge. Had to hold my nose.

Spent the first part of my day dyeing my hair blue. Doing it alone isn't
easy - not when you can't see the back of your head.
I made a mess in the bathroom, in the kitchen and on my brother's floor.

Have been keeping the dye bath around 60-70º C, to encourage alizarin uptake. The colour seems to be taking nicely, though it's a bit weaker than I'd anticipated for a ~1:1 ratio of dyestuff to fibre. Am running exhaust brews of my dyestuff to extract a bit more of the pigments, and adding them to the pot at temp.

This student was already an enthusiastic natural dyeing experimenter. She was glad to learn a way in which she can use the dyed fibers.
Most dye sublimation banners are used either in conventions, tradeshows, retail, or temporary outdoor displays or fairs. Dye sublimation banners are typically printed on a poly knit material, which is a heavy duty polyester fabric that displays color brilliantly. Tradeshow booths often use stretch polyester dye sublimation banners for their displays or backdrops as it can be stretched just enough to alleviate any wrinkles, making a great looking dye sublimation banners display.
We always seem to have shirts around from a fun-run or fundraiser event ... thought it would be fun to perk one up with tie-dye. I didn't want the dye to go right over the shirt's logo though. For a resist I just used some elmer's school glue, covered the design and let it dry. The glue does get a bit soft and gooey during the dying process, but not enough to let the dyes get through. And then it takes a while to wash out. But it was a cheap and fairly effective resist.
