Fabric design: Tunic

I wanted to embellish something more interesting than T-Shirts and found tunics in a simple cut. I dyed them by hand and printed them, using my own stamps. The stamps were cut from different materials: Speedball Speedy-Cut and foam lining. The fine lines were added with fabric paint in small bottles with a fine nozzle. Tunics in this style were my bestsellers in Canada.
