FABRIC DYEING & PRINTING This term we are studying fabric dyeing and printing. You will need to answer the following questions to form the basis of your notes for the semester. You can find the answers on the internet, in the books provided in class and through class discussion.

 For your prac this semester you are required to make a furnishings product, using fabric you have dyed or printed yourself. As usual, you will need to submit supporting documentation (your folio).

 Have a look at some of the work last year's class produced.









Look on YouTube to get some ideas on different dyeing and printing techniques. This is a good one on block printing.
