Is "tán miánhuā" used to make cotton quilts comforters or medical cotton balls?
"Tán miánhuā" is an essential step in making handmade cotton quilts, also known as "tán miánxù", "tán huā", "tán mián", and so on in the folk culture. Even today, you can still find workshops where cotton is elasticized in certain parts of the city. However, with the progress of time and the continuous improvement in technology, machines have replaced traditional manual craftsmanship. This also means that this intangible cultural heritage technique and traditional craft may gradually disappear before people's eyes. What is "tán miánhuā"?
The so-called "tán miánhuā"/elasticizing cotton is the process of using a bowstring to loosen the cotton inside cotton clothing and quilts after removing the seeds from the cotton. Generally, old cotton is re-elasticized to make the already "tight" and "compact" cotton inside the quilt or clothing become softer. New cotton can also be used for elasticizing. How to elasticize cotton?
Tools: Elasticizing bow, wooden beating stick, grinding wheel, etc.
Process:
(1) Hooking cotton: Unravel and break apart clumps of cotton.
(2) Elasticizing: A special bow designed for elasticizing cotton is needed. The length of the bow can vary according to personal preference. By striking the strings of the bow with a hammer, the cotton is picked up, allowing it to become fluffy.
(3) Pulling threads: Two people use yarn to create a network on both sides of the cotton batting to hold it in place. According to tradition, white yarn is usually used, but red and green yarn must be used for dowry cotton batting.
(4) Grinding: Use a wooden grinding wheel to press and grind, making the cotton and yarn adhere together.
(5) Flipping: Flip the cotton batting over and repeat the process of spreading, grinding, and applying yarn network. This completes the making of a cotton quilt.In general, "tán miánhuā" is one of China's traditional handicrafts, mainly used for making cotton quilts. Many people may have seen it during their childhood. Nowadays, there are various types of lightweight and warm bedding available in supermarkets, and this traditional craft is becoming rarer. However, in the eyes of people in rural areas, no matter how good the new quilts are, they cannot replace the strong sense of life found in traditional handmade cotton quilts. The final step is rolling and pressing, which is extremely important. It determines whether the quilt will remain intact or gradually become loose and scattered over time. The key lies in the skill and level of rolling and pressing. Starting with the material of the rolling wheel, it must be made of special wood, preferably large and straight wood from seaside areas. This type of wood not only has good quality and is easy to handle, but also contains air holes that do not disrupt the arrangement of the cotton fibers during the pressing process. Moreover, rolling and pressing must be done evenly. Both the master and the apprentice hold the rolling wheel, bending their waists and pressing with their hands at the same time. After finishing one side, they flip it over and press again. In the end, the master stands on the rolling wheel, using both feet to push and move the wheel for the final pressing. At this moment, the peak of the elasticizing technique is displayed.How to choose the same size of handmade craftsmanship elasticizing quilt comforter according to the size of the duvet cover The size of the quilt duvet cover is calculated by the weight
