Tie & Dye and Hand Brushing

Clothes and tied with thread in a certain design and then dipped in colours, after drying the threads are removed. The portion which was not tied gets coloured while the portion which was tied remains white or whatever the base colour of the fabric was. This gives a beautiful pattern and a new design is created in tie and dye. The whole process is handcrafted. 

Hand-brushing is more or less same. Threads are tied in a pattern and colour is applied with a broad brush by brushing on the fabric. After drying, when the threads are removed, a beautiful pattern gets created on the fabric.

Lorem Ipsum Dummy

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.
