Textile Postcard Project Week #58

November 4th - 10th 2018



A chain of spirals on rock

This card is very closely related to the one I posted last week. I really love the 2 cotton fabrics together.They certainly suit the image I was trying to portray.
From memory both fabrics were Batik style fabric. Traditionally the patterns on Batik fabrics were drawn in place with wax, then the fabric itself was dyed. The wax acted as a resist to the dye. Some wonderful designs have been printed this way.
