Behind the Scenes: Textile Printing

Lacefield Designs introduces two new textile lines per year, in June and December, at the ITMA Showtime textile trade show in High Point, North Carolina. Months of research, creating concept boards and designing original artwork goes into each textile pattern. This week we are in the midst of our favorite stage, finally seeing the textile patterns transferred to fabric! Here is a behind the scenes peek at the textile printing process:

Ibiza Peacock, introduced in December 2012, is a single screen (one color)
pattern.  Notice this machine can accommodate up to 12 screens! 

ink passes through the tiny holes in the rotary screen

printed fabric is fed into the dryer

after drying, the fabric is inspected before being rolled onto tubes

screens are cleaned in between color changes

rotary screens stored between print runs

From Trash to Treasure

Philadelphia based Chairloom is one Lacefield Designs' textile customer that truly knows that "one woman's trash is another woman's treasure". Business partners Molly Andrews and Tracy Jenkins breathe new life into battered and worn furniture pieces by reupholstering them with vibrant new textiles. The ladies of Chairloom have become known for mixing traditional furniture shapes with colorful, bold prints. Visit their website and Facebook page to view some inspiring 'Before & After' photos like the ones below.
