Hand making African clothes from scratch using African batik fabric

[@willsartstyle7642]

What kind of dye was used?
Is it vat dye?

Love the color and the motif! The final outlook looks absolutely amazing! May I please know if you guys removed the was ( the hot water step) after the fabric is dry or it's ok to remove the wax when the fabric is still wet? Thank you so much!

Hey! We typically remove it when it’s wet (after the last dye has oxidized).

Peace be upon you, it is very, very beautiful, my sister. Is the design made of sponge? What is this material that you put the design in? Is it dye? Can I do this with any color of dye and it gives me this beautiful shape? It is very beautiful. Please reply. Thank you.

Yes it’s dye. Yes you can use any color of dye, but you do need a foam to stamp on the wax

If you don't mind my asking, I hope you'll give me an answer. What are the exact quantities of caustic soda, hydrosulphites and colours that you used for all these fabrics?
And please what are the basic measurements normally for a 5 yard fabric?

Hey, it really all depends on the type of dye you’re using (they all have instructions). I don’t understand the second question.
