Designing and making damask table linen with Damcro program

The subject matter of "Designing and making damask table linen using Damcro program" is based on creating a conceptual graphic model inspired by a mask. The paper describes the complete technological design process of making damask fabric and damask table linen, respectively - napkins, table toppers and cloths, form picture over computer processing to final weaving pattern and woven fabric. The first part includes theoretical processing, and the second one includes experimental and results, i.e. practical application of the theory in practice of the theme. Several designer solutions of damask table linen are given in standard sizes. By dealing with the experimental work the procedure of designing damask table linen has been explained. It was carried out by designing a weave pattern for the production process by means of the Damcro software package and its description substantiated by manufactured and added samples of a woven cotton damask fabric, using a napkin as an example from the production range of table linen. To explain this whole process, a special program for weaving damask fabrics named Damcro is used. It consists of several interconnecting and complementing programs. On account of its complexity it offers the opportunity to create more complex and sophisticated patterns which could not be realized practically before. Advantages of such computer processing in comparison to the previous operation method are being explained, in particular the advantages related to the speed and accuracy of making a complex weave pattern. Based on the aforementioned a sample of one of the solutions for practical use was made at the company Kelteks, Karlovac, Croatia.
