jinianBecause I am amazing/ridiculous, I painted a dress for rushthatspeaks for Christmas.
(Also I psychically divined that they needed bamboo cooking chopsticks. When one is in Daiso, one gains these uncanny abilities.)
The front, with my favorite nebula on the upper front -- I didn't plan that exactly, but doing the most visible bit last does have benefits.
The back.
I used this tutorial from Autostraddle, except for the fact that the only dress I could find meeting requirements turned out to be part synthetic and didn't bleach well, and painted with Jacquard Textile Colors. It was really fun! I may do it again to some all-cotton T-shirt of my own to get the full experience, even if we're not really going to be on-trend any more.
(But note that anyone else who wants one needs to provide me with a garment that definitely fits them, and preferably not live in the middle of a mail-delaying snowstorm while the finished product is in transit. Such suspense!)
