Wow. You really do do everything yourself. I could never do it either. I buy aluminium screens and if they need remeshing, I pay the professionals to do it. Much...less...stressful. Dogs are good though.
Screenprinting at home/small studio is not very popular in here and it costs me too much to ask professionals to do it... Australia seems to have many independent textile printing artists - very interesting and I'm envious! :)
I've never stretched a screen before...and I don't think I want to! I just send my screens into the manufacturer and they do the work for me :p By the way, lovely new designs! can't wait to see the birdy looking one on fabric :)

Hi Thea,

I love the stretching of the screens! I just don't like to do the taping off after stretching.
Angie, you are so lucky to enjoy the stretching part! I like to do taping off :)

I don't know how handy it is to just ask a professional to do the job in the US but it saves me a lot of money here in Japan :)
