Learn how to make your own tie dye cross t-shirt using Tulip One-Step Tie Dye! This is a perfect tie dye project for church camp or Vacation Bible School! This tutorial demonstrates how to tie and dye a cross design on a tee shirt, a popular fabric dyeing technique known for its bright, saturated colors and bold patterns. Tie dye T-shirts have been popular since the 1960s. There are dozens of methods of tying and dying a shirt, but one of the more attractive ways is to make the dye outline a shape, such as a cross.
The cross is in the center of the shirt front, and all of the rainbow colors radiate outward from the central piece. The design looks intricate and complicated, but is actually very simple with one. Fold the shirt in half, then quarters, then eighths, and then take a rubber band to tie up a circle in the middle near the long diagonal that won't be part of the cross itself.
Carefully apply dye to the arms of the cross by dipping it or by squirting cool water dye on with a squirt bottle, then apply other colors of dye to the tied part.
