Year 4 have been creating their own
West African inspired tie dye.

We first looked at lots of examples of
tie dye from The Gambia.

We then looked at some beautiful
Adinkra patterns.

I don’t know which symbol I should choose for my stamp.

We need to choose a design we can cut out
easily.

I had to create a new stamp design as my original was too
fiddly.

Next we had to decide how to tie
the rubber bands on our fabric. This was
harder than it looked.

I have chosen to have a single ring in the middle of my tie
dye. It was very important to make the elastic band as tight as possible.
My own heart shaped Adinkra based stamp.

We are now using our stamps to print a pattern onto the fabric.

You have to be careful to not put
too much paint onto your stamp.
How do you think Kadie madethis pattern on her tie dye?

It was really important to take care when using
our stamps, I made sure my pattern turned out exactly as I wanted.
