Bringing Something New To The Party

I've seen a gazillion posts on Pinterest on how to DIY screenprinting.

Some people use the actual screenprinting materials, but in a little frame.

Some use Mod Podge and wooden embroidery hoops.

Others, use contact paper as the "resist."

I put all those ideas in a blender, and came up with this:

I use some screenprinting paint I had, a screenprinting squeegie,

contact paper for the resist, sheer "curtain" fabric off the big bolts at Joann's, and my

Q-Snap quilting/embroidery hoop!

The beauty of using the Q-Snap is that I could get the fabric really nice and taut,

and when I was done, I could take out the fabric and do another design.

I didn't have to worry about storing a bunch of frames.

Also, my Q-Snap is huuuuge -- a full 16 inches across.

I could do some really big images with it.

The results?
