What is Block-printing?

Block printing uses a variety of "stamps" to pick up ink from a pad and then press the design on to the surface of the cloth. Generally stamps are hand cut in wood or rubber with unique design. These stamps are placed over the salwar kameez fabrics to make design, the environmentally friendly water-based acrylic inks are used, which are very durable yet have a soft feel on the fabric.

The block printing salwar kurtas are ethnic and yet very chic and comfortable. They have a greater demand in the urban and metropolis then in rural areas.
