Hello! I am getting ready to make a dress for my darker complected daughter in a lime green. I have looked at the stock superstretch lime green and it is not the right color I am looking for. I want the color to be a little pastel (like a lime sherbet), but still slightly neon. Anyone ever dyed a dress this shade, and if so, what's a good paint combo. Thanks in advance for your help!

if you don't like that, i would probably suggest you buy one of each of the green acrylic paint colors and put a little of each on a paper plate like a palette and just start mixing until you get the color you want. i have always been able to get a pretty sherbert lime green color from neon green and white though. hope this helps
