More techniques for clothes


Cut and Slash: sew two or three layers of material together either in particular shape or in lines then cut slits inbetween the sqaures of sewing revealing the material underneath. When complete looks very affective and could be stitched onto plain clothes to give them a unique twist
Here I have used strips of organza, in two different colours, to do finger knitting. This small section of the technique is a sample for my textiles folder as I will be using green and gold organza for a belt on one of my designs.


 Stencil printing: This technique is very easy and all you need is some card for a stencil and acrylic paint for the printing. You can print onto many materials but it works best on cotton.
