If you're reading this then chances are that you're into photography. This is the QJ photography blog after all. With that said, perhaps you may find this little how-to interesting.

Jay Bedingfield posted this little tut on making a homemade muslin photography background on DIYPhotograpy.net. Muslin is a type of finely-woven cotton fabric and is often the cloth of choice for theater sets. With the right colors, it can be used to set the mood of any number of scenes, and with the right lighting, a backdrop of a backdrop painted on muslin can appear or vanish, allowing a set to be transformed almost instantaneously from one setting to another.

Nifty, eh? Y'know, looking at the finished product (see pic on top), we think that even if you're not gonna use it for photography or anything of that sort, it would still make a rather good curtain. Oh, and you can also use pretty much the same technique in making tie-dyed shirts.
