This fabric is intended to be wrapped around a Harry Potter book so you can carry it with you safely wherever you go. I created a stencil of Hogwarts castle and used corn dextrin and dyed it in indigo multiple times. This technique gave it a strong contrast and a spooky backdrop. I knew I wanted my design be related to Harry Potter, but I also wanted to keep it abstract. When it is wrapped around the book you cannot tell that the silhouette of the castle is even present. It is a hidden surprise inside waiting to be discovered.
