The Secret of Ecoprint Technique (Full Tutorial) Part 2 • The Secret of Ecoprint...

So hi, im roman, FINALLY todays video id like to show you the secret recipe how i made ecoprint on fabric, how i create a beautifull print on it, a secret why and how the leave or the flower leave their shape beautifully, this is base on my exploration, maybe the weather, ph level of water and so many factor will affect the result, but you can try this recipe.

This video is maybe long, but i dont want to cut the video so i will show you every step of the process of the textile making.

Step by step :

1. Choose the best fabric/materials

2. Clean the fabric (Scouring), i have 2 ways to clean deeply the fabric (2 method)

3. Preparing the fabric (Mordanting), 2 step to make your fabric is ready to dye.

4. Selection of the plants.

5. Bundles and Steam Technique.

6. I love you.

1. Fabric / Materials

The first is the most important before you making natural dyes, selection of fabric or material, because we work on natural dyes, natural things, so make sure the fabric that u ll be use is from nature also, like linen, cotton, or maybe silk.

2. Scouring

The second, is to scoured the fabric, what is scouring means? Scouring refers to thoroughly washing or deep cleaning the fabric, to remove residue or residual chemicals on the cloth from the factory when fabric making.

This is one factor of success in achieving strong color on natural dyes, is to start with completely clean fabric. Does this mean fabric washed in washing machine? No! We think the washer gets our clothes totally clean but it honestly does not. That is why, to get a good even coverage with your dyes, it is very important that you deep clean your cellulose fabric such as cotton, linen, bamboo, or maybe silk.

For me, this is my method, i have 2 ways to scour the fabric, the first is boil the fabric on hot water with some soda ash about 20 minutes, or if you dont have a soda ash you can use any detergent, but i recomend a soda ash and TRO (Turkish Red Oil). Boil for 20 minutes and ready for the next step, but if you patient enoght i have another tips, another methos, that is leave your fabric on soda ash mix with water for about a night or a couple night, until the fabric is clean and dry it.

3. Mordant

The 3rd step, next for this step is to mordant the fabric, what is mordant means? Mordant is like to prepare your fabric for natural dyes, mordanting process make your fabric good enought to sticking the tanin (the substance in plants that produces color/natural dyes) from leaves and flower. More rich the tannins on a plant, more strong the color will be.

There is 2 step of mordanting the fabric,

Neceser bordado a mano; Colección Lanzarote.

Siento a Lanzarote como una isla áspera. 

Cuando llegué aquí, hace más de 20 años, sentía la isla suficientemente alejada para calmar un ruido que me angustiaba.

Horas de sol y sal templaron mi alma. 

Ahora escucho al mar como balsa de aceite, cuando viene de fondo, cuando hay ventolera o hay calima. Se ve y se escucha diferente.

La silueta de la isla y su arquitectura de otro tiempo, son trazos fáciles de reconocer para residentes y visitantes que decidan regalar un producto funcional como recuerdo de Lanzarote.

Algunos de los bordados están inspirados en los dibujos de Santiago Alemán; Catedrático, ilustrador y profesor de la Escuela de Arte de Lanzarote, del cual fui alumna.

2nd Year Academy Group Project - Collection for Atelier Via Maggio “Naturenaissance” SS2018

[jrrtfanforlife]

I worked in a costume shop in college. Obviously my boss and coworkers all were very interested in sewing. I remember one day my boss commenting that she used to sew all her own clothes, but clothes are so cheap these days and fabric really isn’t, so it makes more sense to just buy now.

Thanks to a spontaneous new texture sensitivity, I’ve gotten really into natural fibers. To the point that I ended up buying several yards of fine jersey knit merino wool fabric. The workout clothes I make with that will absolutely be more expensive than the $25 Nike shorts made of plastic I used to wear, but cheaper than the 100% merino wool options I could just buy.

So moral of the story I guess. Commercially produced clothes are only cheaper cuz they’re made of the cheapest possible fabric.

Types of fabrics

Fabric refers to the substance that is used to make various textile product and are commonly used to make cloth, curtain and other home furnishing. It is a flexible material made by weaving, knitting, crocheting or bonding fabrics together. Fabric plays a crucial role in defining the characteristics of textile product. Some common fabric types are cotton, silk, polyester, nylon, wool, etc.,

Types of fabric:

There are two types of fabric types. One is natural fabric and another one is artificial fabric. Natural fabrics are derived from natural substances like plants, animals or minerals. Whereas artificial fabrics are created through chemical substances like petrochemicals.

Natural fabrics have a softer feel and more breathable and it is biodegradable, while artificial fabric is non-biodegradable may not be environmentally friendly.

Natural fibers are formed through biological process. Cotton is extracted from plants, silk is extracted from silkworm, wool is extracted from animals like goat and sheep.

Artificial fabrics are generated through chemical synthesis. Polyester, nylon are polymer-based fiber, rayon, viscose are regenerated fiber.

Fabrics plays a pivotal in our daily life. Whether derived from natural fibers or synthetic fibers, each has its unique characteristics like comfort and durability.

Finally bit the bullet and ordered a pattern so I can try sewing this wool/hemp blend up into trousers and a vest. Thanks to several iterations of Kuroshitsuji cosplay I Fukken' Hate!!!! sewing suits but not as much as I hate having a closet full of unused tanmono.

This is a kimono bolt but it's in the old-fashioned narrow width so it's not wide enough for my armspan--the standard bolt has been getting wider as the average person gets taller.

I'm basically always too hot no matter what time of year it is, so summerweight formalwear would be Great. Also it was ¥50 at the recycle shop so if I fuck up, no terrible loss.
