Graphic screen printed fabric ideal for embroidery, quilting and crafting, hand printed onto linen and cotton fabric to suit your projects. The design 1951 is inspired by the Festi val of Britain, a spectacular event which raised the spirits of the country still living in post war austerity. The exhibition celebrated British design and manufacturing and exciting new styles emerged from the period. The simplicity of 1951 is a versatile design, embellish it with stitches, or use in patchwork and other craft projects. The linen and linen / cotton blend fabrics are best for embroidering into as they have a looser weave and wonderful texture. 1951, printed in a gentle sage green.- printed area measures approx 48.5 x 34cm (19 x 13.25")- printed with water based inks- heat set and fully washable at 30 degrees, iron on a warm setting on reverse of printprinted on a choice of basecloth:- white 100% cotton which is smooth and perfect for quilts- white 54% linen / 46% cotton blend which has the beautiful texture of medium weight linen- natural coloured 100% linenAll three fabrics are shown in the last image.Hand screen printed in my London studio.
