#screenPrint! All! The! Things!, weekend 2

The attempt at a two-colours print, using a stencil cut in plastic rather than paper (to make it reusable) will have to wait until tomorrow, when I'll do the second colour.

Today there was also another thing, however:

This is a screen made with old curtain fabric painted with white (PVA) glue and a round embroidery hook, and…

it worked!

It isn't the neatest print, it's grainy and there are a few spots outside of the image where the glue didn't fill all of the fabric holes, so I'm not going to stop using the real screen any time soon, but it is A Look, and it's a look that I like, for some specific things.

And this “home sewing is killing fashion” graphic with a sewing machine with teeth and crossed bones that I've found ages ago on the internet(TM) is exactly the kind of things for which this look is fitting. I had to cut the rest of the text, however (it was “and it's -il-legal”, with the il crossed) because it was too small for the resolution of the screen.

Cool stuff!
I just tailor cheap clothes from the market to fit, I get some really good clothes for 1-5€ this way.
I should try some embroidery once

I've washed the screen with not-too-warm water, it's currently drying, and tomorrow I'll find out whether it is still usable or the glue has been washed away with the paint.

I'm not sure which option I'd prefer to be true, however :D
