Sun Printed Bliss

My favorite store Make and Mingle started carrying the coolest fabric that allows you to make amazing sun prints! I got this tutorial off the Make and Mingle blog.
First you lay your letters or shapes on to the fabric, then lay it out in the sun! I chose to do mine a little later in the afternoon for less contrast with the letters. 
 30 minutes later....
 After being in the sun rinse the fabric until blue!
I made pencil case for my sister out of my sun print, and decided to print the word bliss. 
Because don't we all need a little more bliss in our lives?
For the other side of the pencil case I made a patchwork of different fabric scraps to match the letters. I stitched over the strips to make in look like a french seam.
Here's my end product!
