BLOCK PRINT PROCESS:
Block Printing is an ancient printing technique especially with the use of vegetable dyes.
First a wooden block is carved with the pattern, then fabric is then prepared with multiple washes to make the fiber ready to take the dye. With the wooden block, each design is printed a stamp at a time. With the process of multiple printings and washing before the final product is placed in a dye bath of flowers and barks, the fabric goes through the hands of the block printer and dyer with utmost care. That same care is passed onto the consumer who wishes to take part in this process of honoring the craft and the earth that gives us so much.
