PGFiber2Art was honored to kick off a week-long series of special classes at Artistic Artifacts that followed the Studio Art Quilt Associates conference held in Alexandria last week. Last Sunday afternoon we had a group of 10 delightful ladies for Thermofax Screen Printing, 5 who were local and 5 who attended the SAQA conference from other states - Colorado, Arizona, South Carolina, and Georgia. They created some lovely pieces of fabric and were willing to experiment and try new things. It was a relaxing and fun afternoon.
The snowflake fabric turned out awesome! The hand-dyed fabric is the perfect background for the all-over snowflake printing. Below, two different circle screens are used in different colors to create layers and depth.
I love the way these 3 prints of money plant are slightly overlapped, and also the combination of a natural design element with text. Below a tree bark screen is combined in different colors with text.
The piece above was created with 4 different screens and different colors to add texture and depth.
Above are several students hard at work. As part of their kit they chose 5 fat quarters of both hand-dyed and commercial fabric to print on.
Jeanne is hard at work!
