Today I am just getting all revved up about the MidSummer Maine Workshop starting on the 22nd. I know that was this past Friday but I wanted to have something for this week. So while you are reading this I am downloading and editing all the photos from the event.
To get into the spirit of the workshop, Marcella, my trusty co-teacher, wanted to make some aprons for the participants. I cut a mylar stencil with tiny manicure scissors and made a nice stencil. I tried it out on my favorite "art" shirt. The top you see is clean but further down it is covered in old paint, dye and ink. I LOVE this soft chambray shirt. Now I love it even more.
I think I might have a thermofax screen made.
Thanks for reading,
Beth
I LOVE your stencil. Your bird is wonderfully birdy looking, as opposed to a simplified generic bird outline. He/she looks opinionated and full of character.
ReplyDeleteOoh, can't wait to see the pix! And your stencil is wonderful! I haven't done many stencils, but have the materials in case I get the urge. Looking forward to your posts about the workshop!
ReplyDeleteLooks great! It inspires me to make some stencils!
