Ever heard of fabric marbling? It is an incredible art form that allows you to create wonderful pieces of fabric for use in all kinds of ways. Check us out on Facebook: / mvquilting www.mvqfabrics...
What are you using in the water to help the paint stick to fabric. I'm new to this and no clue what methocell or however it's spelled. Do you have another tutorial that explains more ??
The reason you get mud after a couple or 3 colours is the way you’re applying your colour. Usually the colour is dotted on to allow some spacing rather than covering the surface with just one colour, then adding another as you did. Most classic marbling patterns use many more than 3 colours.
Hi...thank you for sharing your passion however, I’m new to this medium and would really appreciate a more detailed tutorial for us novices? Your scarf is very pretty👍🏽
It would be helpful to know what type of paints you use for this. Also the ratio of water to Methylcellulose for the bath. Thanks for sharing this, looks interesting!
That is awesome . I'm brand new to this. I have a few questions . What brand of paint do you use and where do you get all your supplies including the box and rake. Thank you so much
Hi! Thanks for actually sharing your process from taking the print hanging your scarf to air dry. any videos here just show the paint dropping process so good job!- I am marbling some tshirts in my home kitchen- just wanted to ask for your advice. Any idea how i could make a large marbling tray- i dont have a permanent home studio space so im just trying to make something that i can easily take down when done. Thanks.
your video inspired me to try it but I can not get the fabric paint to float like you. If it floats it will not spread, if I thin it more then it turns transparent and spreads too much. Please share the brand of paint you use and how you prepare it to be used for marbling. Thank you!
This size in this video is methocel (not methylcellulose, which is a food thickener). Methocel is available on Amazon. Carrageenan is the traditional size used in this art form, but because of the hot summer, we used methocel.
Thanks, but you're using way too much paint. I can see a lot of it is just washing off in the water! That's not real marbling. Real marbling is dropping small drops of ink or thin paint onto the size. Paint should never be wasted. All things are finite resources on our Planet. Please read up on what real marbling is before you try to teach anyone about it.
