It's all about the quilts.

Week 51...

For this week's project I tried my hand at silk screening. You will notice in an earlier post I made silk screens around Thanksgiving. Well, now was the time to practice and with a newly made tote bag, what an opportunity. First I learned that I did not plan well and did a double screen but used the same color-(no picture)...Well, as you might think, a flop.. The second screen that I used was too small to get a good pull, so I got ink in other places. What did I learn? Make your screen big enough so you have plenty of room to pull the ink over the designs and always be prepared with different inks. This is going to be an addiction, I can tell. Oh the possibilities...
