Love this technique and ...Thanks for sharing Angie. Love this technique and will definitely use it. I love the way the printing process makes everyday surfaces so interesting, also the recycling is a bonus too. Fabric medium is pretty good as it helps a little to stop the acrylic stiffening the fabric too much, but if you really don't want to affect the handle of the cloth, and you are using cotton/viscose or linen you could use thickened procion mx dyes - you would need to pre-soak the cloth in soda first, and once printed cover with polythene (to keep it moist or the dye won't do it's thing)and leave overnight before rinsing. I bet it would look lovely with lumiere paints too - could have so much fun experimenting with this couldn't you??Donna Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10901441631454886425noreply@blogger.com
