If you brush the silk with water first, then it is easier for the colour to run without drying too quickly (and forming blotches).

5

When it comes to colouring two pieces of silk, it’s a good idea to count the drops of colour in the same volume of water. The colour here is very diluted. You can add more colour gradually if you wish.

6

Paint a flower in one corner of the wet silk with undiluted paint. You can draw soft lines towards the opposite corner.

7

When dry, paint the dots in the middle of the flower. Use undiluted purple paint.

8

You can outline the petals with water if you wish. This shifts the colour and highlights the shapes.

9

Wrap the silk in cotton fabric. Silk should not touch silk. Then wrap the fabric in aluminum foil, and put on a stone in a large pot with some water. Before putting on the lid on the pot, put a towel in-between to absorb condensation. Fix the silk for 1½ – 2 hours, then rinse and iron.
