Unfortunately I was unable to attend the session in which my group
picked a colour pallete, which meant they had to make the decision without me.
They chose soft pastel colours, which I initially liked and thought that they
would bring a softer side to the theme in which we had chosen. Although having
worked in the print room before using a pastel colour pallete I knew that it
was going to be quite difficult to achieve the colours that we wanted because
they were simply to pale. The first time we worked in the print room we worked
with the hand painted reactive dyes which was a good experiment and showed us
how difficult it was to create the pastel colours because when the fabric gets
steamed the colours become even lighter.
This is our sample from the first print room session showing the
outcome of our fabric. I was very disappointed with this as none of the colours
came out because they were to pale. Unfortunately we will not be able to use
this piece of fabric in our final garments, which we were hoping we would be
able to due to the little time we have and the high demand for the print room.
I think that our main problem we will have throughout the project will be a
lack of time.
