screen printing...


If you have followed my blog for a while you will know that I really want to screen print my own designs on to fabric. I don't think it is going to happen any time soon but I have bought a few pieces from two clever screen printing Folksy sellers.

 
The first two pieces are Avenue print from Summersville, I bought this in the red and the blue colourway and am thinking about hairclips with little houses on and maybe a purse or two.


I also bought two pieces from She Draws and was very impressed when they arrived in a matching printed envelope.


I have already started to make some button brooch sets from this fabric...


I will hopefully have more to show you next week, have a great weekend x
