At the Stitches and Craft show I did a printing workshop taught by Lara of Harvest Textiles for Ink and Spindle. We made tea towels using stencils we cut from contact adhesive, the stuff you use to cover school books. It was an excellent workshop, and it's nice to bring home a project I can be proud of, made with good quality materials. Will I dry the dishes with them, as intended, or will I hang them on the wall?
To the left you see Miss Maisy Brown stalking her Arch-Nemesis, the possum, which is sitting on our back fence. To the right, the giraffe (G- raffe), a great graphic animal and a favorite of mine.
Lara and Harvest Textiles run courses at Ink and Spindle. My friend Sparkly Green Knickers, who I saw at the show, is booked in to one, and I'd like to too.
Stay tuned, there's more to report from Stitches and Craft!

The tea towels look fantastic, hang them on the wall!
I agree, hang them on the wall, you clever thing! They look fantastic!
Great to see you at the show - we spent a glorious 6 hours there all up!
Love the tea towels!
One question, does the paint make them a bit stiff or is the fabric still soft an pliable? If you were to use them (which I think they are far to cute for) would it wear off with a lot of washing?
Sorry, that's two questions!
