Cuirim Craft Fair: 1 day to go
April 20th, 2007 by Candace
With Cuirim Craft Fair happening tomorrow, we had a pow-wow last night to tag auction items, organize small details, and make screen-printed shirts.
Joanna had offered to show us how they’re done, so with all our crisp, white tees, we watched and marveled at the process of screen-printing.
And Joy, so incredibly excited about us having t-shirts for the fair:
We’re all so excited about the fair, and anxious to see how much money we’ll raise for the Cuirim House. We’ll definitely be posting pictures next week, so check back to see how it all turned out. And thanks again to Joanna for doing our shirts for us and letting us use your supplies!

And I totally love that I have crafty friends, esp. around the birthday. Look at what Joy and Jen made me: [...]

Where did you get the screen printing supplies? It looks so fun? I have only seen screen printing done with large screens.

Just a tip, I’ve found that using gocco to print on fabrics works sooooo much better if you use a squeegie with the screen rather than the gocco press thing. So you position the screen directly on the fabric and use an art-store squeegie to drag the ink across a few times…. worked way better for us, don’t know if you had problems. Gocco is pretty awesome in any case!
