CHAPTER 6 - PATTERNING OF FABRICS USING COLD WATER DYES AND FABRIC PAINTS

MONO PRINTED AND SHIBIORI PATTERNED FABRICS

(Again I lost the photo record of some of my fabrics, but they appear cut up and pieced in subsequent chapters)

A- fabric paint dotted onto a glass plate, the fabric was dampened and a print taken. Inspiration was a leopard skin pattern


B- fabric paint brushed onto a ceramic tile that has a squared raised pattern, the fabric was dampened  and a print taken.


C- fabric paint brushed onto a glass surface, the fabric was dampened and a print taken.Zebra markings were the inspiration


D- fabric print taken from a 'Art Van' plastic tile using fabric paint


E- another 'Art Van' tile fabric print


F- print taken from a large ceramic tile with a raised surface pattern


Dyed fabrics using cold water dyes.


G- my first attempt at dying fabric black, I subsequently re-dyed the fabric with a darker result.


H- Arashi shibori fabric tied around a plastic water bottle, pushed into folds and dye painted on tops of gathers


I- Tritik Shibori, fabric gathered in straight lines, dye was brushed onto the folds in lines and spots


J-  Tie and Dye samples, the fabric was rolled, tied tightly at intervals and sections just dipped in the dye
