Thanks, Judy!
Initially, I was using the color formulas from the Tom & Martine DVD. But I've been slowly adapting them.
For example, I've found that 1/2 of their turquoise mixture is quite enough (They use 3-1/2 tbs per 8 oz of pre-mix.)
I tried a new purple mixture in this batch. Previously, I was using fuschia + yellow for my red, and red + turquoise for purple. The resulting purple had a greenish edge. This batch I used fuschia + turquoise and a bit of softened water, and the results speak for themselves.
I'll add a few more photos a bit later.

 A spiral mirrored about the center line of the shirt. A bit of a mushroom look, don't you think?  A spiral hospital scrub. I'm trying a target market, lots of friends who work in the medical field. |

Your colors are very bright!
I like the spiral scrub because the colors overlap.

As I recall, Tom & Martine mix their dyes more intensely so they can dilute it for lighter shades. I usually use 4 tsp per 8 oz and it gives me the intensity I like. It pays to experiment to find out what works best for you... no hard and fast rules here! Judy |

I folded the shirt in half along the centerline of the shirt, then twisted in the spiral. But for the life of me, I can't rememeber if I twisted in direction of the fold, or away. |

Your tire tracks design is my favorite. I love the way the colors mix in such a bold pattern.
