Reading this comment, I think I am probably better at giving advice on what NOT to do! - Good luck:) I am going to try some new ones this week - if I have coated the screens properly this time! So I will put them on the blog when they are done.Bettyjoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03758340128522455385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-243338070868579207.post-43354790269864700362008-09-29T12:32:00.000+01:002008-09-29T12:32:00.000+01:00Nice work hopefully I will be as sucessful with my...Nice work hopefully I will be as sucessful with my attempts!

I'm so glad they turned out well as I had so many false starts trying to learn how to screen print over the last month that I was about to lose the plot and chuck all the screens out with the rubbish until this weekend when i finally managed to get it to work) I'm thinking about making some cushions i think:)Bettyjoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03758340128522455385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-243338070868579207.post-80039758561979528532008-09-15T16:41:00.000+01:002008-09-15T16:41:00.000+01:00these are gorgeous!
