A popular and well known method of creating ornamental designs on cloth is block printing. In Bagru, Rajasthan, a thick cloth is used as the base. Geometric and floral designs are printed on both sides of the cloth though these are not always the same. The colour palette is restricted to black, maroon and buff. Bagh in Madhya Pradesh is another traditional block printing centre with colour similar to Bagru: red and black. The base cloth is treated to make it receptive for printing. Ajrakh from Dhamadka in Kutch, Gujarat, is a technique by which patterning is created by resist printing. Both surfaces of the fabricare printed, with a perfect placement of blocks to make the designs on either side identical. The colours are mainly red and blue.
