Batik 49'er Storm Sail Wall Hanging 14" x 17" 49er The 49er's name comes from its hull length of 4.99 metres. It incorporates ideas developed in Julian Bethwaite's 18ft Skiffs, notably the Prime Computer series of boats, which were double handers. FROM DESIGNS BY ALISON 2013 TALL SHIPS SERIES INTEREST IN MULTIPLE PIECES IN SERIES = DISCOUNT. MESSAGE ME FOR DETAILS. Evidence of early examples of batik have been found in the Far East, Middle East, Central Asia and India from over 2000 years ago. Batik applications include wearable art, interior treatments, wall hangings, and has become wildly popular within the quilting community. This process of waxing and dyeing can be repeated with many colors to create elaborate and colorful designs. With each of my batik pieces wax is applied by hand with one of several tools. Depending on the technique and look I am trying to achieve varying blends of beeswax and paraffin are used. Color may be slightly different than computer image. Each piece is one of a kind but I can repeat a technique in a different color combination. Message me for more information. I use quality cotton fabrics for this series and the dyes used actually bond molecularly with the fabric which creates brilliant colors that do not fade with washing. Each piece in series comes ready to hang with dowel in casing along top edge. I will finish in any other way specified at an additional charge. Hand wash with a small bit of soap and line dry. Iron on wrong side if necessary. Due to the bias construction of a necktie dry cleaning is recommended. Care details will be included with piece. Thank you for visiting Designs by Alison.
