This weekend I took a workshop at Stitch Lab to learn fabric printing with dye. We used techniques such as stamping, rolling, and silk screen to apply dye thickened with sodium alginate. I even figured out how to use some of the wooden stamps I got in India by creating a stamp pad from felt and towels with dye.

I shrunk the drawing using illustrator. |
I should really buy some transfer paper, but graphite will do. |
I think the pink kind carves more smoothly. This is a bit rough. |
Always test your stamps. Here I realize I forgot to cut the wheel centers. |
