Fabric Screen Printing Continued...

So after I had left my A0 screen to dry overnight, I went back to the textiles print room to finish it off.
I pinned a large piece of cotton to the work surface, making sure the material was very tightly stretched down. I then mixed up the colour dye in a large bowl and, with the help of the lovely printing lady, laid my screen down, weighted it and then inked it. I realised quite quickly on that I had forgotten to tape up the sides of my screen, so the ink got through round the edges, but overall I was rather proud of the finished result.
