I’ve been continuing to work on the color samples. I’ve included some photos where I used Dawn dish washing liquid as a resist. As I mentioned last week, with the color samples I’m applying two layers of the resist. In this case, I started with a painted background, applied a layer of Dawn (see below for the application technique), let that dry and painted a wash of color (or colors), let that dry. I then heat set the fabric paint and in all but one case, I washed out the first layer of resist. I then applied a second layer of Dawn, using a different application technique, painted a wash of color(s) and again set the fabric paint. The final step is to wash out the second layer of resist. The photos here show the fabric before I did the final washing out. I will show photos of what the fabrics look like in their final version in my next blog entry.
