This involves decorating the apparels with thread or yarn. Embroidery also incorporates other materials such as metal strips, pearls, beads, quills and sequins. The basic techniques of chain stitch remain the fundamental techniques of hand embroidery. It can be done on either a finished garment or cut piece of fabric. Embroidery is used to create logos or pattern designs. It can come in the form of a logo, badge or applique (a piece of fabric is embroidered onto another piece of fabric or garment). |

What is Silkscreen Printing |
|
Screen printing is a printing technique that uses a woven mesh to support an ink-blocking stencil. The attached stencil forms open areas of mesh that transfer ink to a sharp-edged image onto a substrate. A roller is moved across the screen stencil, forcing or pumping ink past the threads of woven mesh in the open areas.
This is a stencil method of print making in which a design is imposed on a screen of silk, with blank areas coated with an impermeable substance, and ink is forced through the mesh onto the printing surface.
A screen is made of a piece of porous, finely woven fabric stretched over a frame of aluminium. The areas of the screen are blocked off with a non-permeable material to form a stencil, which is a negative of the image to be printed; the open spaces where the ink will appear.
Silkscreen printing is the most common used method to print on garments as well as accessories. |
