film and swap



Show and tell for today:
a) a recent swap done with the super talented Jesse. Thanks!! Love the photo of textile designers in her latest post. I could really see something similar with some friends of mine... Lara, B, Teegs, Shannon - anyone for a photo shoot?
b) new film for a 2 colour yardage design. This is a BIG deal for me. There are a lot of different costs involved in hand screen printing. It all starts with the film - $330AUD for 2 pieces... ahhh. Almost more than I spend on clothing in a year. So for that price, I think it deserves it's own blog post and photo.

For that price, you could divide the pic in quarters and stretch it out over a month of posting. Looking mighty lovely though.

Go on just do it!!!!.... the fabric mafia need some exposure, you were all so hard to find when I didn't know you existed!!

Just do it! Can't wait to see the end result - it will be money well spent.

Jesse said...

The film itself is lovely enough; I'm intrigued to see the design.

And yes, you should do a glam photo shoot - it's fun! How often to textile designers get a chance to really dress up, after all? Usually it's all aprons and ink stains...

Loved the magazine pics of Jesse and crew! I could see the Aussie girls in a similar shoot. I have a few Americanos I'd like to stand with in a shoot, too!!

Your films look fabu - can't wait to see the finished result!
