Introductory Message

For the Facilitator:

Welcome to the Arts 8 Self-Learning Module 2 on Fabric Design!

This Self-Learning Module was collaboratively designed, developed and

reviewed by educators from the Schools Division Office of Pasig City headed by its
Officer-in-Charge Schools Division Superintendent, Ma. Evalou Concepcion A.
Agustin, in partnership with the City Government of Pasig through its mayor,

LESSON

Textile Design is the creative and technical process by which thread or yarn fibers are woven together
or interlaced to form a flexible, functional, and decorative cloth or fabric, which is subsequently printed
upon or otherwise adorned.

THAILAND
Thai silk is produced from the cocoons of
Thai silkworm. It is mainly produced in Khorat
which is the center of the silk industry in Thailand.
Thai weavers from this region raise the caterpillars on
a steady diet of mulberry leaves.

Today, Thai silk making is considered to be

one of the finest arts in the world, a product of a
unique manufacturing process and bearing unique
patterns and colors.

CAMBODIA
Silk weaving in Cambodia dates to as early as the first century since textiles were used for
trading.

There are two main types of Cambodian weaving:

1. Ikat Technique - to create patterns, weavers tie and dye portions of weft yarn and old
rubber bicycle tubes cut into strips before weaving begins. Patterns are diverse and vary
by region; common motifs include lattice, stars and spots.
 2. Uneven Twill - it yields single or two-color fabrics, which are produced by weaving three
threads so that the color of one thread dominates on one side of the fabric, while the two
others determine the color on the reverse side.

Ikat Technique Uneven Twill

INDONESIA, MALAYSIA and SINGAPORE

The fabric most common to both countries is the batik. The term batik is an Indonesian-Malay
word, believed to be related to the Malay word titik, which means ‘point’, dot’, or ‘drop’.

There are two categories of batik designs:

1. Geometric motifs 2. Free form designs

Modern batik designs depend on the creativity of their designers. Naturalistic motifs like leaves,
flowers, and birds have been utilized to create elaborate and intricate designs.

In Malaysia, the states of Kelantan and Terengganu are considered the cradle where batik first
flourished, reaching even Singapore’s shores.

There are two main types of batik that are produced there:

1. Hand painted - the artist uses the canting, a small copper container with one or more different-
sized pipes.

2. Block printed – is done by welding together strips of metal to form a metal block. The metal
block is then dipped into molten wax and pressed against the fabric in order to make a pattern.
 Hand painted Block printed

In Singapore, the existence and use of batik has been recorded since the 12th century but has
receded in popularity through the years. Nowadays, batik is featured in as the uniform of flight
attendants for the official flag carrier airlines of Singapore, Indonesia, and Malaysia.
