    • The basic idea is just fill in the basic design which we have selected.

    • We can make a free hand design and check how best we can fill in .

    • The most important of all is the colour scheme.

    • The perfect scheme will bring a lot of joy to the eyes.

      It has been a long time that i tried fabric colours. I picked a random design and shaded it .
    •  

      This is called half shading . Here goes the process.
    •  

      Pick a design ofyour choice.
    •  

      Out line first with a darker shade of the colour you wish to fill.
    •  

      Fill half of the motive inwards.
    •  

      Then fill the other portion of the motive inwards.
    •  

      Take a lighter shade or mix the main colour with white for a lighter shade.
    •  

      Prefarably , lighter shade should be inside and darker one towards the out side of the motive.
    •  

      Looks elegant if you leave the leaves with few flat brush strokes.
    •  

      Just dip in colour and make a mark out wards the motive you wish to give the effect.
    •  

      So the base of the motive will be dark and as it goes to the edge becomes lighter.
    •  

      This effect gives a good look for petals and big floral designs…
    •  

      i have used glittering fabric colours for a special look.
