There are several methods for creating art from fabric scraps. The technique of this type of needlework is quite simple, you don’t need to buy materials and tools, they are in every home. Despite the low cost of the finished product, a fabric painting, made with your own hands, will please the eye no less than a landscape or still life, which costs a lot of money.

Japanese painting technique

Paintings made from fabric scraps - relatively new type art that came from Japan. It's called kinusaiga. Even in ancient times, when sewing Japanese traditional clothes Expensive fabrics of the highest quality were used, and initially banal economy created such an original artistic form of making panels and paintings from fabric.

The Japanese tried to use old clothes by decorating various items in the house, and it was these attempts that led to the creation of the Kinusaiga technique.

Experts giving a master class on creating paintings from fabric with your own hands according to the ancient Japanese technology from scraps, they teach step-by-step specific actions. First, a sketch of the future painting is created, which is transferred to a specially prepared wooden surface. According to this sketch, a contour is cut out on the board in the form of narrow slits, up to two millimeters deep. The fabric is cut into small pieces with a border of about one millimeter. The border is inserted into the slots using a special tool.

As a rule, artists in the paintings created from pieces of fabric depict landscapes, less often people, since the kinusaiga technique does not allow one to accurately convey nature.

Therefore, if people appear in these paintings, they are stylized to match the subject of the image.

Modern kinusaig

Modern kinusaiga technology has undergone some changes. It has become simpler and more accessible, which has given it the opportunity to become widespread throughout the world. Expensive silk was replaced with ordinary pieces of fabric, and pieces of foam plastic were used instead of wooden boards.

You can see once how paintings are made using the Kinusaiga technique to understand the principle of operation. First you need to prepare necessary tools and materials. This is primarily a sheet of foam that matches the size of the design. In addition, the work will require colored pieces of fabric.

The fabric should not stretch or unravel into threads. In addition, it should be thin enough to be comfortable to work with.

Then you need to select the appropriate template and prepare paper for copying. Tools you will need:

  • scissors;
  • scalpel or thin knife;
  • a thin but not sharp instrument (nail file).

First you need to create a template based on simple geometric shapes. It will be much easier for beginners to work with it. After which the finished image is transferred to foam plastic using carbon paper. Then, along the contours, it is necessary to cut slits with a depth of no more than 3 millimeters using a scalpel or knife.

The next step is to cut out pieces of fabric that match the size and color scheme individual image details. After which the edges of the fabric are pushed into the grooves of the foam, you can use a nail file for this. This is how the whole picture is created.

The grooves can be filled with glue so that the fabric holds better and does not fall out. To make the panel complete, you can place it in a frame. Now the painting made using the kinusaiga technique is completely ready. In the same way, you can decorate Christmas toys, which will look very original.

Other methods of working with flaps

There are several other methods for creating paintings from pieces of fabric with your own hands. One such method is to glue pieces of fabric onto a backing. The uniqueness of fabric appliqué paintings lies in the fact that images from fabric flaps are created without the use of a needle and thread. The advantage of this method is its relative simplicity implementation. In addition, this does not require the purchase of expensive materials; everything you need is in every home.

It is necessary to prepare materials and tools, as well as all types of colored pieces of material of appropriate sizes and thickness. Thick and dense material not suitable for small parts. Required tools:

  • PVA glue;
  • scalpel or sharp knife;
  • manicure scissors;
  • drawing of a future picture or plan;
  • felt-tip pen.

You need to take a rectangular or square piece canvas and stretch it over wooden frame. This will be the base of the picture onto which pieces of fabric will be glued. Instead of a frame, you can use a small wooden rim.

The working diagram of a do-it-yourself painting made from scraps of woven material is as follows. The drawing is transferred onto the base using carbon paper or a felt-tip pen. Imagery doesn't have to be difficult for beginners. Initially, it is recommended to choose a simple image with no small details. Over time, when experience comes, it will be possible to create more complex crafts.

Then you need to cut all the details of the image and put them together to form a drawing. This will allow you to see shortcomings and correct them. When all the details of the image are prepared, you can start gluing them onto the base. You can also use not only textiles, but also cardboard or a wooden board as a base.

Very interesting compositions can be created using pieces denim different shades. Swedish artist Ian Berry uses different shades of denim to create incredibly realistic cityscapes.

Fabric paintings

Another method that is used to create original paintings is to stitch together pieces of material (using a sewing machine or by hand) so that the surface forms a three-dimensional relief drawing. This technique appeared quite a long time ago, it can be seen in interiors country houses last century.

Our grandmothers collected all kinds of fabric scraps and embroidered colorful blankets and pillows. Such products can still be found today. They are characteristic of the interior and style of Provence, identified with life in the village. A little later, craftsmen began to create paintings based on this technology.

Patchwork panels can be a kind of abstraction or convey a certain plot. To do this, use a variety of pieces of fabric that can be found in every apartment. In addition, the work requires scissors, needles and threads, and flaps corresponding to the selected image are cut out. For stitching flaps it is best to use sewing machine. Although it is possible to sew by hand, the process will be much more labor intensive, especially for beginners. To smooth seams you can use steam iron.

Attention, TODAY only!

Not so long ago, paintings made from scraps of fabric came into fashion. This type of needlework is called kinusaiga. The technique originated in Japan. There are several areas of kinusaiga, the main ones being: 1. Patchwork.
2. Quilting.

These types are similar in the material used. These are pieces of fabric. They differ from each other in the way they are executed. Patchwork is interesting because textile fabrics are created without a needle and thread. Quilting is patchwork sewing. A panel made from scraps of fabric with your own hands in the “patchwork” style can not only decorate the interior of your own home in an original way, but also become an excellent present to all friends and acquaintances. This technique is quite simple, so even novice needlewomen can create real masterpieces.

Schemes for making canvases can be downloaded on the Internet. For a fabric painting using the patchwork technique, you will need the following materials:
1. Foam base for a painting about 2.5 centimeters thick ( suitable material, left over from the packaging of household appliances).
2. Fabric scraps different colors, shape, size (the thinner the material, the easier it will be to work).
3. Glue (do not use superglue, otherwise it will melt the foam base).
4. Knife and small scissors.
5. Tool for ripping seams. It can be purchased at a sewing supply store.
Some people use nail files, but the first option is more convenient.
6. Buttons and printed diagram.
7. Copy paper and felt-tip pen.

Tools for creating a picture using the patchwork technique During work, the foam will crumble, so it is better to work in a room without carpets, so that it will be easier to clean up later.

Below is a master class that will help you make a lovely picture from scraps of fabric.
First you need to prepare a drawing. To do this, you can use a printer or draw on the cells yourself. The ornament can be applied to the foam base using carbon paper or drawn with a felt-tip pen. The manufacturing process begins with a frame, which a textile painting must have.

  1. The base of the foam painting can be made in the shape of a rectangle or square. The frame is made like this: on each side of the workpiece, margins are drawn, retreating from the edge by a few centimeters. To make it easier to transfer the pattern, you need to secure the foam with buttons.
  2. Use a knife to make grooves. They should be no deeper than half a centimeter, otherwise the foam will break.
  3. Now you need to decide where the material will be placed. It is better to take knitwear: it stretches quite well and does not slip.
  4. Apply glue to one of the drawing areas. Place the selected piece of paper in this place and tuck its edges into the recesses with a nail file or steamer. Excess fabric is trimmed with scissors.
  5. First the frame is made. The hanging edges of the material are secured to the back of the foam base with buttons. After this they begin to draw the pattern.
  6. So that the picture can be hung on the wall, on it back side attach the loop. To attach it to the wall, you can also choose a mastic that is used to fix the tiles. If you have no experience in patchwork, it is better to choose a simpler pattern at first.

  • scissors;
  • stationery knife (scalpel);
  • nail file (for threading fabric into foam);
  • sketch (your own or you can take any ready-made one);
  • carbon copy.

The fabric should be selected to be non-stretchable and thin enough. The edges should not fray.

First, look at what is in stock: old scraps, leftover fabrics that were not thrown away after sewing some wardrobe item. Everything will go to work. If checking the storerooms does not give any results, then you will have to take whole pieces and cut out the elements of the planned picture from them.

Process:

First you need to decide on a drawing. For the first time, you should not choose something complex, with many elements. Let it be easy geometric figures. And from them you can already build a small cute house.


Using a sheet of copy paper, you need to transfer the sketch onto a piece of foam plastic.

Using a knife or scalpel, make a cut along the contour of the sketch to a depth of about 3 mm.

Cut the selected fabric into shreds, the right size. Using a nail file or something more convenient, tuck the pieces of fabric into the foam sheet. Thus fill the entire “picture”. The edges of the fabric should fit tightly into the slits.

  2. After the division is completed, you need to number the parts of the drawing. Then cut out fabric elements using them. You need to leave a 3 mm allowance along the edges.
  3. Then prepare the canvas for the future painting. For this purpose you need to take a sheet ceiling tiles. The thickness should be half a centimeter. Glue the sheet onto thick cardboard.
  4. Glue the second copy of the drawing, which was printed in advance, to the foam. Cut a groove in it, the depth of which should not exceed 2 mm, along the contour of the sketch.
  5. Apply glue along the cut grooves with a glue stick. When performing this Japanese handicraft for the first time, it is recommended to apply a glue stick to the entire surface.
