Today I made a couple of pillow covers with some gelatin printed fabric.
I simply cut the fabric 1″ bigger than the pillow form. Sewed 3 sides with the machine.
Sew 2″ in on each edge of the 4th side. Insert form and whip stitch the rest by hand.
Happy with the results!
If you would like to learn to make hand printed fabric for your fiber projects then check out the details and join us in the next session of Monoprinting Fabric – with the gelatin plate. It is an easy experimental process that can give a wide range of printed marks.
This online printmaking course is for anyone who wants to learn to gelatin print on fabric. We will start with the basics and go from there. If you already are familiar with gelatin printmaking, then you will develop nuanced marks and details that are possible with this process.
