Blueprints Cotton Cyanotype Fabric

Sorry, this item has been discontinued. 

This pretreated 42" wide Kona cotton cyanotype fabric from Blueprints allows one to make photographic quality images in white on a blue background, with the utmost ease. The cotton fabric has been treated with Potassium Ferricyanide and a ferric salt. When exposed to sunlight the fabric will turn a bright blue color, like a blueprint, except wherever it was covered. So if you put a leaf on top of the fabric, expose it to light, you will have an image of near photographic detail of the leaf against a blue background.

Blueprints Cyanotype pretreated fabric the easiest sun printing product out there. Just cover it with your object/design/etc. expose to sunlight, rinse and dry and you have a nice detailed print.

You can also create photo negatives by printing or drawing images on clear transparency sheets. Just lay the transparency sheet on the piece of fabric and then place a piece of non uv blocking glass or acrylic on top of the transparency to hold the transparency in tight contact with the treated fabric or paper.

4.35 oz. per square yard

I bought several of the packages that contain a yard of fabric. I tried the blue fabric first I followed the directions the sun prints turned out great I rinsed the fabric following the directions and then I machine washed it to make sure that the prints would remain. They looked great so I used the sun printed fabric in a quilt which has been washed and used for more than a year. Its holding up wonderfully!I did the same process with the green fabric but when I washed my quilt all the green sun print fabrics faded out! They had already been rinsed and washed and looked great dark green fabric with light green sun prints. But after sewing into a quilt and washing again the formerly dark green backgrounds turned lime green and the sun prints are a sickly looking yellow. Im disappointed and now afraid to try the pink. I give the blue 5 stars and the green 1 star.
