When using many dyes, the main consideration is to use all-natural, non-synthetic fibers. Cotton, linen, silk and wool are great options.
Seal-All is very good on fabric that is exposed to weather.
because it's not metal
Both are just as good as each other if you get the more exspensive brands, quite often cheap markers are not very good, but as long as you keep the fabric tight it should be fine. personally I prefer fabric paint but either will do. Including fabric pastells If you are working on a small item or want to do detail work, a good set of fabric markers are invaluable. Their down side is the smaller number of colours available. With fabric paints you can cover a larger area with less work, They come in a wide selection of colours and being able to mix colours gives you much more flexibility.
You could do it, providing you use a good quality fabric medium with it, but as most bathing suits are designed to stretch, and get wet, the paint will look "tatty" pretty quickly. If this is for a one shot deal - a photo shoot, or big beach/pool party, it will most likely look good that long, but fabric paints (or acrylics mixed with fabric medium) don't work well on man-made fibers.
Yes, linen is a natural fabric. It is made from the fibers in the stalks of flax plants.
The term "tiedye" refers to a dying technique whereby one knots up fabric before it is dyed in order to produce patterns within the dyed material. It works because if you knot the fabric, the dye cannot reach into the knotted areas of the fabric and tends to produce an un-dyed area in the shape of a starburst pattern on the fabric.
Earthworms are neon green and sometimes tiedye
20.00 to 30.00 dollars
the dye in a tiedye kit will stain your skin for a while
Wal-Mart is a good fabric store that sells high quality fabric for a good price. Most craft stores also have a high selection and good quality fabric.
It is a good insulator because the fabric has little fibers in it to keep the cool AIR in, which means that the fabric is strong. ! :)

mood is a good place to shop for fabric.
If you can't find them any where, try to trade other people for them. Just keep looking!
For medical uniforms, T/C fabric as twill is good. but the best fabric is CVC, more cotton, but not 100% cotton.
Yep, Grandma and Gramdpa still dig out their tiedye t shirts from time to time
Fabric Pens are very good for patterns but are not good at all for detail. The colours smudge together resulting into no detail. Fabric pens are good for writing as they have thin led but not for colouring in. Fabric pens are normally used to create a message onto a piece of fabric… When you have finished using the fabric pens you have to iron them into the fabric so the ink can set.
