I ink dyed these four fabrics..
 ...then made them into a quilt top.  Will quilt it later.  I used fabric medium and alcohol in with the inks so make the "solids" and splattered ink on fabric that had medium and was dried for the multi colored pattern.  Then I used two different stencils to "pattern" the fabric.  I thinned out the ink with alcohol then laid the stencil down and almost dry brushed the ink over the stencil and fabric.  One stencil was a roundish pattern and one was squarish.  These fabrics worked well in the quilt together because some of the same colors were used in all pieces in the alcohol dyeing.
