For this post I decided to use a spiral pattern.
Here is the screen with the Elmer's Washable School Glue on the screen. I never had a problem getting the glue out of the screen before but during the Maine Event I had to cut out the screen and replace it. Not a big deal but it was odd. I think it was because I left it on over a week. This screened cleaned up pretty easily.
Here is the screen and glue. I think the blue glue might be easier to remove.
First pull in blue
Second pull in Chartreuse after flipping the screen upside down (180)
Washed, dried and ironed.
P.S. Today is my birthday!
I want to be the first to congratulate you with your birthday. I wish you all the best for this new year! Great prints!!
