    Description
    This broad survey for textile design students, professionals in the industry, and dedicated amateurs presents both an overview and a teach-yourself course in the art and craft of textile printing. Following a short history of textile printing, the authors describe fabrics for printing, tools and materials, pastes and dyes, applying colors to textiles, and setting up a studio. Following chapters describe various printing processes in detail--block printing, serigraphy and silk screen, devor and bleaching, batik printing, and serti painting with guta pigments. The book concludes with detailed, step-by-step instructions of six textile printing projects. They include a child's dress, a shawl with beautiful gradated colors, a handsome lampshade, personalized pattern printing on denim clothing, and a armchair decorated with a gutta design. Color photos on most pages--hundreds of illustrations in total Originally published: Barcelona, Spain: Parramon ediciones.
