Cyberhints

No-Flo, a resist that coats fabric that allows you to paint with Dyna-flo to get painterly results and prevent the colors from running in the fabric. After being heat set, no-flow washes out. Dharma, Dick Blick carries it.

Tinting wool. Kool Aid was the method most suggested. black food coloring can be used to mute color.

Texture magic: works with the steam of an iron and even better with a heat gun. Great results with finer fabrics and close stitching.

Collage pieces mounted on canvas. Used gel medium to attach the pieces to the canvas, along with some dyed cheesecloth to 'take' the collage onto the background. http://daphnegreig.blogspot.com/
