Hand Block Printing

After meeting the world's great hand-block printing artisans on a recent trip to northern India's Rajasthan, West Elm asked them to make a special collection of quilts for their bedding line. Watch as they create an array of striking designs, all printed using intricately carved teak blocks and richly colored pigment dyes. I wish I knew how to do this! So inspiring.
