Apr. 20th, 2009 03:07 pmSo, I got some screen printing stuff, went out and bought the inks I needed, as well as a new brush and some of the drawing fluid and screen filler, and tonight I'll be printing up some Snape faces on fabric to test it out.
I think it's working pretty well so far, but we won't really know until I do my first print.
I'm going to be making them into over-the-shoulder tote bags. They'll be a good size - around 12-14 inches wide and 18 or so inches tall At least I think that's the size.
Hopefully they'll turn out so I can sell them.
I'll take a digiphoto and upload it when I get the first one done. That way you can tell me what you guys think I ought to charge for it.
I'm depending on all of you!!

Now, I'm going to test it out on a couple of other types of fabric and see if I can't get it to work out nicer on some broadcloth. I might make the bags double-layered broadcloth if this works.
On the whole, though.. ( I'm pretty darn happy with it. )
