I've been looking for just the right snowflake stencil for hubby's snowman throw, and hadn't found anything just right. While we were at the Des Moines AQS show, hubby found a fabric painting stencil he liked, so I thought I'd give it a try. It was fun!! It has to sit and dry for several days before I heat set it, but so far I'm happy with it.

Now I'm kicking myself for not picking up paint sticks when Hancock Fabrics here had them on clearance :oops:

The diagonal lines are marking lines I put on with Pounce; they'll iron off when I heat set the snowflakes.

it looks great.

i love painting & dyeing fabric too.

dharma trading is a great site for these products.

also when joann's has 40 or 50% off coupons it pays to get paint stiks, dye na flow, and tsukineko inks from them.
