    • Printer-friendly version

    A fresh and supple leaf is selected for leaf printing. Here dried ones are not preferred as they crumble during the process, affecting the flow of patterns. The chosen leaf is first applied with dye colour on its rear side and is carefully placed on the fabric to be printed. Then placing a small piece of paper over the leaf, it is gently rubbed to achieve a firm impression on the fabric. This is repeated for every pattern to be printed and the cloth is then allowed to dry in the open air. Using a single leaf more than 200 motifs can be printed. For an aesthetically attractive set of designs, a combination of differently shaped leaves and patterns is also stamped to the same fabric.
