Design

Flower Press. I love block printing.

Its such a great way to print original designs on to fabric. There are lots of different ways to block print too, in fact anything that can be coated in paint and then impressed can be used. Some traditional methods include lino, woodcut and even potato prints. Foam block printing is a relatively new process and uses craft foam to form the print surface. LES POMMETTES DU CHAT. Print & pattern. [my new little obsession] Move over permanent marker, I now have a new, legit fabric doodle buddy.

In the past I've been know to draw on sheets with permanent marker (for little A's first birthday I drew characters on sheets for the children to color in with chalk. It worked really well. When I washed the sheets the chalk came off but the marker stayed, ready for another afternoon of playful coloring). As great as this was, it was time to step it up. That's when I found these babies.
