Batik fabrics are a form of fabric artwork, and it's usually made on textiles, which relies heavily on patterns and masking dyes and inks.
The batik is a technique for decorating textiles, by which parts of the material that are not to be colored are covered in molten wax. The wax prevents the fabric from absorbing the dye during the decorating process, which is how there can be more than one vibrant color showing on the material.
The word batik is of Indonesian origin and is related to a Malay word for dot or point, "titik" and the Javanese word "amba," meaning" to write."
There is an interesting debate if you can mix the two different fabrics. My option is simple; sometimes, it works to combine the two different types, and sometimes it doesn't. It depends on the pattern and fabric print textures.
Some people state it's hard, "no." Let's have a friendly debate on Facebook soon about the topic.
When you walk into the Norton House, you'll quickly notice we have an entire room full of watercolor Bali fabrics. Beckie and I LOVE Bali fabrics and the natural movement the material makes.
What could you make for a loved one to enjoy colorful watercolor fabrics?
