Fabric to Go
I'll be teaching while in Florida next month, and will take a few of my fabrics with me in case they're needed. These are not yet washed out, so look a bit crisp and high chroma. I'll wash out when I get a bigger batch. More printing tomorrow.
These are made by printing or directly applying thickened dye. I use the term "painted" loosely, because I'm often mixing and applying the color (via thickened dye) the same as if I was painting. And the recent Hand/Eye article I wrote, the publishers put in the title as "Painting on Fabric" so that is confusing!
Are these dyed or painted?
