Doily Print Fabric Made With Photosensitive Dye Free Tutorial by Jessica Jones

Looking for a great way to reupholster some chairs? If you are check out Jessica Jones Doily-Print Fabric Made With Photosensitive Dye tutorial. Enjoy!

Doily-print fabric made with photosensitive dye

Here's what Jessica said about her tutorial: It's spring in Chicago, which means wet things no longer freeze outside and the sun actually shines. So I tried another project with Inkodye, the photosensitive dye tested in a few projects last year. I'd received samples from the manufacturer to play with, and I've been curious about using paper doilies as stencils.

Surface Design Techniques For Fabric - How To Sun Print On Fabric, How To Print Digital Images On Fabric, Metallic Paint Effect On Fabric, and How To Remove Excess Dye From Fabric Free Tutorials By Vicki Welsh of Field Trips In Fiber

It's always great to learn from a pro. At least I think so. Well, if you want to learn a few tricks and techniques for surface design and dyeing then you'll be happy to know that Vicki Welsh of Field Trips In Fiber has a couple wonderful tutorials on her blog explaining various techniques she employs for surface design. I hope you enjoy Vicki's surface design techniques tutorials.

How to Sun Print on Fabric

Here's what Vicki had to say about her sun printing on fabric technique: I really enjoy sun printing and have written lots of posts about some of my sun printing results. I also wrote a PDF tutorial.

How to Print Digital Images on Fabric

Here's what Vicki had to say about her printing digital images on fabric technique: My favorite way to transfer images to fabric is to print them with my ink jet printer. I find this to me the most reliable technique and, because there are fewer mishaps, it's also the most economical. This PDF shows how I do it and also provides a comparison of pre-treated fabric sheet products.

Metallic Paint Effect on Fabric

Here's what Vicki had to say about her metallic paint effect on fabric technique: I love adding a little bit of sparkle to my projects and there's no better way than painting your own fabrics. The metallic paints not only add sparkle, they add a lot of depth of color and texture. This PDF will show you the process I use to get metallic effects on fabric.

How I remove excess dye from fabric (commercial and hand dyed)

Here's what Vicki had to say about her removing excess dye technique: One of the biggest complaints about hand dyed fabric is that it's not color fast. Many people are wary of using it because they are afraid that the colors will run and ruin their entire quilt. Honestly, it's a reputation that the hand dyed fabric industry has earned.
