    The only thing I would have don't different would be cutting around the design before sewing it to the jacket. Either that, or watercolor it so that it eventually merged with the color of the jacket. But that's just my taste. I love that you upcycle, and that you share these things with us!

Just wrap your garment in elastics like a normal tie-dye and boil a large pot of water, then toss the spice/vegetable for the color you want in and boil it until its as vibrant as you like.

    A couple things you should know- Super 77 yellows a lot and may come through your canvas. Those watercolors are probably not lightfast so they'll fade pretty fast. If anyone decides to make anything like this to sell you'd want to use archival stuff just cause it will last a lot longer.
