Development, Natural Dyed Fabric, Added ValueAbstract
This research aimed to develop naturally dyed fabric products to create added value and enhance the product line of the tie-dyeing profession. The sample consisted of 25 members of the tie-dyeing profession, selected through purposive sampling. The research was conducted through participatory action research focusing on product design, techniques, and materials used in production.
The research findings revealed that the development of naturally dyed fabric products from leaves and flowers resulted in various colors. For instance, turmeric leaves produced yellow, Teak leaves produced purple-pink, soapberry leaves produced yellow-green, marigold flowers produced orange, and Coral vine flowers produced orange. The arrangement of leaves and flowers gave the fabric a unique identity. Moreover, the design and development of four new products were achieved, including shirts, shawls, bags, and pillowcases, which aligned with consumer preferences and benefited the community in a new format. Furthermore, it was found that the new products could generate added value, increasing the original value by 30% and income by 60%. This serves as a guideline for increasing income within the community context.
