Ideas on how to transfer images onto fabric for an eco friendly project?

November 23rd, 2012 1 comment

As part of eco-schools we need to transfer images onto white cotton. I was just wondering if anyone had any new ideas. Eco-friendly ideas would also be excellent. The images might end up being images the kids have drawn, photos and also the fairtrade logo will be on it. These are the ideas I have come up with so far. The pupils are from 11-16.
Embroidery machine,
Applique,
Use image maker,
Fabric Paints
Printing (lino/ stencil etc..)
Batik

Any other ideas???

hand embroidery
free motion embroidery
beading
rust transfer "dyeing"
mudcloth designs
flower or leaf pounding
direct dye methods on pre-mordanted fabrics
altered fabric, e.g., cutwork

remember that the "greenest" methods are usually the most human energy intensive. The less "stuff" needed to accomplish the goal, the less environmental impact. Also remember that white cotton is not exactly environmentally friendly in its own right.

June 30th, 2012 22 comments

THINGS YOU WILL NEED:

– (Optional) Go to this link to get the template for the hat piece shapes and PRINT 2 OF THEM: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=20aff3p&s=5
– 1 or 2 extra pieces of regular printer paper
– Pencil
– Colored penicils (optional)
– Glue
– Tape
– Scissors
– Thin pieces of cardboard
– PATIENCE!!!!!!!!!!

If you have any questions, PLEASE message me and I will answer them!!!

The height of the hat should be about 4.25 inches tall, and the lengh around the hat should be about 25.25 inches around (this does NOT include the lenglth around the bill).
Of course you can change the sizes depending on the size of your head, but do not change them too much, only make it on 1/8 smaller or bigger depending on what will fit you.

Also, you can leave a video response of the hat you made from this tutorial, I would really like to see them!!

If you are nterested, I am selling my paper model of the White DC New Era Hat on Etsy.
Here is a link to it:
