Screen printing in red

 

A collection of screen prints in red. I went through a phase where I was screen printing everything in a particular shade of red. The photos show a collection of recycled fabrics as well as printed hemp and hemp/silk as seen in the last photo of the table cloth. The photo at the top is of my daughter nestled in amongst the printed cushions and throws.

Embroidered chair seat

 

This was a very rewarding and fulfilling project. I've had an old chair at home for about 15 years which I bought in an antique shop originally. I don't know how old it is but the style looks like a Queen Anne?? The timber was brown and the seat upholstery was a very dated shiny brown and orange paisley fabric. I used a heavy weight raw hemp textile and embroidered a design which is inspired by traditional embroidery seen on Polish folk blouses. I absolutely love this chair, it's such a statement piece.

Bags with screen prints

 

These are some of the bags from a collection I made last year out of recycled fabrics. I used old heavy weight canvass curtains, repurposed cottons and old scraps which I screen printed using either my existing screens or through paper cut stencils. Great way to reuse old fabrics if you don't know what to do with them. Bags are always handy! All these were sold on Etsy.
