Leslie over at Maze and Vale hosts an awesome swap called Handprinted: a fabric swap. This is the third round of the swap and the first time I relief printed instead of screen printed. Note above my fun studio company, Hi Precious!!!
I printed this well kinda triangley pink design on some Pearl Bracelet fabric when I was at Quilt Con in a workshop with Lizzy House. If you wanna check out some pics from the workshop take a look at my Flickr set. I had a great time at the workshop and it was so fun to meet Lizzy!
The next design was this cloud with ummm stuff coming out the bottom...lol I thought the designs were pretty fun and I love PINK and printing on top of Pearl Bracelets too :)
Switching it up I mixed some orange ink (and yes Charlotte I think of you every time I say the word "orange" now).
Out of the orange came these acidic looking clouds...
and this cool mountains and hills design.
Here are all four of the FQs I sent out! Overall I am happy with the way they turned out and I used oil based ink BTW.
These beauties are what I received in the swap! Aren't I a lucky duck? Printed by hand clockwise from the top left: Keri, Kelley, Samantha, and Kristy.
I would without hesitation be a part of this swap again and again, it kicks my butt to print and I like it that way.
Hi Emily, I love my orange clouds...thanks! It will probably end up as a fun cushion (would a cloud shaped cushion be overkill??) on one of my little girls beds. Keri
