Printing and stencilling! FUN!!!!!


I think I will have to do the blue one again! Can't wait to stitch these together.  My husband is disappointed that I didn't stencil Gene Pitney. 


Here is the beginning of a wall hanging, looking forward to make these up!!!!!
I am really having lots of fun printing the backgrounds then stencilling over the printed fabric, I have used my Gelli plate to do the printed piece.  You can then stencil before it is dry properly.  But on these I did the gold background printing on the play day I had with friends. I have made a pattern in the gold using a leaf stamp.

Kindy Quilt


The 4 year olds at Feilding Eden Kindergarten have been screen printing using their own drawings for a display later this week.  I got the job of piecing their work together and quilting it, it will then be a cover for a sofa in the Kindergarten.
You can check out the Kindergarten at http://www.edenkindy.co.nz/

Playing with our new Gelli plates

 Norma, Ann and myself had lots of fun with our new Gelli plates today!!!!!
Here are some of the prints I made! What a cool start can't wait to play again some time soon.

More painted, stencilled/screen printed Quilts!!!!!!!!!!



I am really getting into these painted quilts, the top one has been painted and printed with the help of a 5 year old little girl.  I am sure she enjoyed the process.



The green and blue one I used two colours to do the stencilling/screen printing!!!!!!
The pictures are done by using a combination of stencilling and screen printing if that makes any sense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
