Project designed by Mary O'Neil. Materials: white or neutral-colored, 100-percent cotton sheets
white or neutral-colored, 100-percent cotton pajamas
white or neutral-colored pillow case
Hot Potato big fruit stamps
Deka fabric paint
foam paint brushes
artist paint brushes
foam board
cotton swabs Note: Do not pre-wash the items to be stamped. Steps: 1. Iron the the items to be stamped. 2. Place foam board under the pillow case. 3. Using a foam brush, apply paint to the stamp (figure A). Consider the light and shadow that might be on a piece of fruit and experiment with color. A small flash of black as a shadow adds an artistic touch (figure B). 4. Randomly print the pillowcase and paint around the stamps for added color ( figure C). Add embellishing color and design to the edges of the pillow (figure D). Allow it to dry completely before turning over to print the other side. 5. Print the top border of the sheet to coordinate with the pillow case. 6. Print the pajamas in the same manner. 7. After all items are completely dry, toss then in a hot dryer for 20 minutes to heat set. Tips: - Keep cotton swabs on hand to dab up extra paint that may get on margins of the stamp. This keeps hands clean. Q-tips are handy to touch up any spots that may not have printed perfectly.
- Do not attempt to print the entire sheet. It is a huge undertaking.
