Leslie celebrates her birthday this month!
 |
We decided to try those thermofax screens we had purchased and never tried!
Easy to use: thick paint (we found Jacquard paints to be good), and a squeegee. Important: soak your screen right away and wash gently to get the paint out of the little holes.

| This is the group, with our work spread out on the table |
Below .... some of my work.
 |
| The metallic paints looked good! |
 |
| You can double print and 'ghost' print. |
 |
| The bugs could be added to an art quilt! |
 |
| This one gave an interesting pattern. Notice top left: screen was too wet and caused paint to run |
Below are plastic stencils using screen printing paint and a stencil sponge brush.
 |
| We also did some rubbings with shiva sticks ... this was gold on navy fabric. |
 |
| Smuged :( |
 |
Interesting to use as a background.
It is fun and useful to make your own fabric designs. |
