I am sorry i was unable to catch any model or dummy for this.. i was searching for any model,i request my brother but he said straightly; sorry its a girly type shirt & i will not like to wear this..plzz!!
i said take my pic for this & he said another hard thing..you know what?he said; you will appear first time at your blog & In “THIS” boring big shirt??oops..whats the matter..it will not look good at you!!(actually this shirt is a standard sized shirt,not fit on me..)
So finally i thought to post these pics “as it is”i Hope you will bear my fault :)

Tie & Dye Shirt

•  I wash & shrink the white cotton fabric
• I went to a tailor’s shop & order him just for cutting the fabric first,after i dye these cuttings,he stitch the shirt 
• I make some pleats on fabric pieces & then fold,wrap & knot all these tightly,with 2 inches gap.
• then i cook the blue color with adding some chemicals
• after cooking well i add the tied & knotted fabric into it
• I cook it almost for half an hour
• then i place the fabric pieces under water pressure in sink so the extra color will release.
• Then i anxiously wait until these pieces dry,
• I reveal the mystery(threads) & then i saw the final result..wohoo..it was fine..perfect as i desire!

• after pressing the pieces i forward these to tailor & he make the dyed scrap into a smart shirt..

 Well its completed now..(without model)
