Print Name:  Hand Printed Cotton Cambric - green pink vine *** (3 Stars)

Description: This is a light weight fabric. Cambric weave is soft and flexible, it gets a bit pebbled once it is laundered. It has good drape. The design is hand printed on to the fabric with carved wooden blocks.   This motif is a lovely olive green background with pink and green floral vine design. This is a light weight fabric, but with good print coverage, so it's not see through.  This pattern coordinates with C25.8 Cotton Cambric in Green Pink Floral, if you want to mix them (see 2nd shirt pic). See the "more info" tab for a description of the printing process.

The Art of Block Printing

The printing is a process called Block Printing, were either wood or metal blocks are hand carved by artists with their chosen design. The blocks are then dipped into the dyes, then stamped onto the fabric. First they stamp the outline of the design, and then other blocks are used to fill in the different colors. Dyes used are usually vegetable dyes, although sometimes mineral and non toxic chemicals are also used.
