Part One: Dying Fabric, Ladder Making and Fashion Show
Fu Guosheng taught kids to dye fabric with local vegetables and fruits. After being dyed into different bright colors, the fabric was made into a ladder and hung over a tree in the elementary school. Later, kids did a fashion show with colored fabric on each one of them.
