Water Marbled Fabric – Gotham

Our hand, water marbled fabric goes through an amazing process to become what you see here. There are never any two pieces just the same as each acrylic bath is poured for each giant square of fabric. The fabric is treated first to set the fibers up for the best success at grabbing the paint. A bath or “size” as it is referred to is created by mixing methocel (a cellulose pulp, taken from plants’ cell walls) into water to thicken it enough so that paint can float on top. The paint is also treated to attach to the fabric after it has been set with heat. This fabric has been hand washed and heat pressed to set the color and make them permanent.

••• NOTE: When interfacing, use medium heat and a protective sheet to protect the integrity of the fabric.
