Textile designing involves applying patterns and designs to fabric surfaces. There are several techniques for constructing and decorating fabric, including weaving, knitting, non-wovens, printing, dyeing, and 3D printing. Traditional printing methods include hand block printing and roller printing, while newer techniques incorporate screen printing and 3D printing. Specific dyeing styles like tie-dye, resist dyeing, and discharge dyeing impart unique patterns by controlling how the fabric interacts with dye baths.

1. TEXTILE DESIGNING

2. WHAT IS TEXTILE DESIGNING
SURFACE ORNAMENTATION OF
FABRIC IS CALLED TEXTILE
DESIGNING

3. Construction techniques
Fabric is constructed using various techniques
• Weaving: the art of interlacement of warp and
weft, can create varied patterns of fabrics.

4. • Knitting: Interlooping of single strand of yarn
• Non wovens: intermeshing of yarns or fibres
to give textured fabric

5. Printing
• Applying coloured patterns and designs to
decorate a finished fabric is called 'Printing'.
•

6. Hand block printing
• The design is carved on the blocks the block is
dipped in colour and then applied on the
fabric, the art is manually done by a skilled
worker.

7. Roller printing
Roller printing, also called direct
printing, method of applying a coloured
pattern to cloth, invented by Thomas Bell of
Scotland in 1783. A separate dye paste for
each colour is applied to the fabric from a
metal roller that is engraved according to the
design.

9. SCREEN PRINTING
• Screen printing is a printing technique that
uses a woven mesh to support an ink-bloc it is
the process of using a mesh-based stencil to
apply ink onto a substrate, whether it be t-shirts,
posters, stickers, vinyl, wood, or other
material.

10. 3-D PRINTING
• 3D printing or additive manufacturing is a
process of making three dimensional solid
objects from a digital file. The creation of a 3D
printed object is achieved using additive
processes. In an additive process an object is
created by laying down successive layers of
material until the entire object is created.
Each of these layers can be seen as a thinly
sliced horizontal cross-section of the eventual
object.

11. 3D PRINTING

12. Dyeing
• Fabric is dipped in color bath, the way in
which the fabric is immersed in the dye bath
imparts various designs to the cloth
• Tie and dye
• Resist dyeing
• Discharge dyeing

13. TIE AND DYE
T he process of tie-dye typically consists of
folding, twisting, pleating, or crumpling fabric
or a garment and binding with string or
rubber bands, followed by application of
dye(s).

14. Discharge dyeing
• Discharging removes the color from fabrics
and is the opposite of dyeing.

15. Resist dyeing
• Resist dyeing (resist-dyeing) is a term for a
number of traditional methods of dyeing
textiles with patterns. Methods are used to
"resist" or prevent the dye from reaching all
the cloth, thereby creating a pattern and
ground. Commonly wax is used to resist colour
from penetrating the fabric.
