Dabu is a mud rest block printing technique from Rajasthan. Dabu print uses paste from mud, resin lime and wheat chaff. The paste is printed onto plain fabric using wooden blocks. The mud essentially resists the dye from entering the fabric, leaving those parts plain while the unresisted parts get dyed.
Ajrakh is a technique of hand-block printing native to Gujarat and Sindh. Natural dyes are used to print one side of the garment. But the mark of a genuine Ajrakh is that the print is visible on the other side as well. Check it out :)
