Customize Clothing with Lino Printing & Derivan Fabric Fixative!

Lino printing is a fantastic way to add your own personal touch to fabric items like t-shirts, tote bags, and scarves. With Derivan Fabric Fixative, your designs will not only be unique but also durable and machine washable! 

What You'll Need:

· Derivan Block Ink

· Derivan Fabric Fixative

· Carved lino or soft-cut block

· Brayer (roller)

· Flat inking surface (like glass or acrylic sheet)

· Pre-washed cotton or linen fabric

· Protective sheet or cardboard (to place under the fabric)

· Iron or heat press

Method:

1. Prepare Your Fabric: Start by ensuring your fabric is clean and smooth. If needed, iron it out and place a protective sheet underneath to avoid any ink bleeding through. Remember, washing the fabric is key – it removes any sizing that could stop the ink from sticking!

2. Mix Ink & Fixative: In a 3:1 ratio, combine 3 parts Derivan Block Ink with 1 part Derivan Fabric Fixative. This magical mix ensures that the ink bonds beautifully with the fabric fibers, making your design last longer.

3. Ink the Block: Roll out your ink mixture on your flat surface using the brayer until it’s smooth and just a bit tacky. Then, roll the ink onto the carved surface of your lino block to prep it for printing!

4. Print Your Design: Carefully place your inked block onto your fabric where you want your design. Apply even pressure with your hands or a baren to transfer the ink. Watch as your creativity comes to life!

5. Drying Time: Let your printed fabric dry completely. This could take a few hours, depending on the humidity and temperature in your space.

6. Heat Set: Once dry, heat set your design to make it permanent! Iron the reverse side of the fabric on the highest heat setting the fabric can handle for 3–5 minutes. Or, use a heat press at 150°C (302°F) for 2–3 minutes. This will lock in the design and make it machine washable!


Tips for Success:

· Test First: Try your design on a scrap piece of fabric to make sure it looks just right.

· Pressure is Key: Apply even pressure while printing for the best results.

· Clean Tools: Wash your tools with soap and water after use to keep them in great shape!

By following these steps, you’ll create custom, one-of-a-kind fabric designs that will last, all with the help of Derivan Fabric Fixative! Happy printing!
