Ice dyeing

I have heard of ice dyed fabrics as a method, but not seen it done. At the recent SAQA MOB[Members of Oceania Brisbane]  crafty get together, Glad was doing some.
She came prepared with lots of ice cubes, dye powder and fabric.
Using a tall cylindrical vase she layered the fabric, dye powder and ice. Very clever as she was transporting it home and this was easy to seal off.
The dye drifted down as the ice melted. We didn't see the finished result- perhaps another day.
