Gutta is a fabric resist - to keep the dye from spreading outside the "lines" you need to use a resist or "gutta". I wish I still had this, but I sent it to Stampin' Up for their reinkers/fabric contest. Waaaa - I didn't get any free stamps sets, someone else did :(
I also used the reinkers to dye white grosgrain ribbon, since I didn't have the right orange at that time. It really works great - you can make any ribbon color you want
