Trying out Screen printing on fabric

I've been meaning to try out printing on fabric for a while now and I thought what better time to try it out than now :). I decided to print the fuchsia flower onto the bag and for this I used Speedball's fabric ink.

As this was just a test to how well it would print I wasn't too bothered about there being a few creases in the bag. The bag I used is a cotton based tote bag that I purchased on ebay a few months ago.






The image came out really well (even considering the about of creases in the fabric) Next thing to do now is to test how well this copes going through the washing machine and whether or not the ink will stay put. I will keep you posted.
