| Blackwork Fabric Print |
There are many blackwork designs as well as one you just might recognize (Plimoth Jacket). It can be printed on silk fabric to make a scarf or heavy duck fabric (tote bag anyone?). You can also buy a small sample to see if you like it on that fabric.
Some people have uploaded these designs to help out those who do reenactments, some using the printed designs for embroidery, such as coifs.
I really wish that we could print on the 40ct Old White linen. Wouldn't that be amazing!!

P.S. You can get gift wrap in any of these as well! How cool!

I love Spoonflower! I've been designing fabric through them now for awhile, focusing on Jane Austen themed prints. And have been toying with the idea of some cross-stitch samplers... I didn't think to look to see if anyone has done any blackwork designs - now I need to go have a ramble through them....
ReplyDeleteThey are very fast, too, especially as it's mostly ooak. I have a yard of their silk fabric that I'm hoarding for just that special project.
ReplyDeleteI love the blackwork designs. I will definitely check out Spoonflower! Thanks.

A little late to the game but this is indeed cool! I am also waiting patiently for the details about your Blackwork class. The one casket earlier in the COC class made by a WW1 veteren (I think) really caught my eye.
ReplyDeleteThere's a product called Bubble Jet Set 2000 which you can use to treat fabric (100% cotton or silk) so you can then print on it using an inkjet or bubble jet printer and the printing is permanent.
