Wow! Who would have thought the meandering print would turn out like that! Well done! Thanks for sharing. ❤
Thank you for watching. And yes I loved that result. Apologies for not responding sooner. TH-cam has not been showing me comments in my feed.😑
Great tutorial!
Thank you so much I'm glad you enjoyed it. 😊
Wow, I am so happy to have stumbled across Part 1 & 2 whilst looking for gelli printing on fabric. Very pleased on many levels, basic and easy to follow, just what I need, your Australian, even better lol and then the icing on the cake you said embroidery and quilting. Now to have a look at the rest of your videos and drag my gelli plate out and dust of the paints and make use of our hot weather coming next week to get stuff dry. Thank you
Lesley,You are so welcome! Thanks for your comments. Also apologies for not responding sooner. TH-cam has not been showing me the comments and I have only just found them.😑
I did enjoy those 2 videos. Thank you.
I'm glad you enjoyed them and thanks for subscribing!
Very interesting! Thank you for the tutorials 😊
My pleasure 🙏
Fantastic 😊 Thank you!
Thank you Julie, I am glad you enjoyed it.
Wonderful demonstration and explanation. I love the colour combinations and shapes you can achieve.
Thanks Deb, I am glad you found it clear and interesting. 😀
Nice demo. Is is necessary to heay-set the printed fabric? And do you find that prints on poly/cotton prints are weaker in strength or that once washed several times that the colour washes away more quickly?
Thanks for watching and your questions. I do heat set anything that is going to be washed. I mainly use my fabrics for quilting, so they only really have light washes. I haven't noticed any difference in the print quality between polyester and cotton fabric. If I was printing for a garment then I would use either fabric paint or definitely a textile medium with any general acrylic. I would heat set both. I always wash my printed fabrics in a mesh bag and on a short cycle, not a regular washing cycle. Hope this helps.
Red and green makes brown.
When you mix complementary colors you get neutral colors.
Hi!! Thank you for you’re tutorial! Do you use acrylics on fabrics and is it possible to wash the fabric without loosing the paint or Color’s ?
Hi Esther, thanks for your question. These are all acrylic paints that I have used. There are a variety of brands that I have used, including Jo Sonja, Matisse, and Golden to name a few.
I have washed all these samples in a 15 minute cold cycle using liquid detergent without any loss of colour. I have used any of these pieces on clothing so I cannot comment on how long they would last. I would expect some loss of colour if they were washed frequently on a normal wash cycle. That's something I will have to explore further.
I use these fabrics for embroidery or quilts that are not going to be washed frequently.
@@leonieandrewsart4137 thank you so much for you’re detailed answer ! Yesterday I bought my first glelli plate . Can’t wait to get started !
@@estherwit1124 enjoy yourself!
What type of paint can you use? Does it have to be fabric paint?
Hi Catherine, I don't use any fabric paint in my videos. I have only used acrylic paints that you can find in art shops, craft shops or even $2 shops. The critical thing if you want to use acrylic paint is that you may want to use a 'textile medium' which you mix with the acrylic paint to make the fabric more flexible and more washable. If you do have fabric paint then I would go ahead and use that, you can achieve the same results with the fabric paint.
In this video you mentioned you would show some printing on textured fabric. What is the title of that video? Nice videos! I'm just jumping in to this technique.
Hi thanks for asking and the reminder. That video hasn't happened as yet. I have a few more coming along and will add that to my list. Glad you are enjoying them.😀
