<p>Test the fabric before using Sharpies and alcohol pens. For instance, I was trying to color rayon/cotton petersham with an alcohol marker and it weirdly separated to many different colors depending on whether the cotton or the rayon was taking up the pigment, if that makes sense.</p> <p>Tania</p>

<p>Acrylic I already have, it would be perfect.</p> <p>How do you apply it : brush ? spray ? I guess it would be useful to diluate a little ; what do you think about medium to paint or gesso ?</p>

Thanks everyone.<br /> Hadn't thought about rit dye. Will give this a try, on a wee test bit as suggested, Mings House. Been there too many times before when I have jumped right in and made a hash of it.<br /> I had been thinking along the lines of fabric paint, the iron fix stuff. Don't know if anybody has tried that?

<p>Could it work being mixed with a little white glue! Would allow a spread ?</p> <p> Another idea, " sharpie" have fabric pens out, and I have a black one, which is great when you only have white cotton covered wire left and need black.</p>
