freezer paper stenciling.
I have a new addiction: freezer paper stenciling!!! I made this shirt for Violet from cutting an image out of freezer paper and using it as a stencil for fabric paint. It's so fun and rewarding. For a complete how-to I really like the tutorial in this book or this website. There is also a flickr group entirely dedicated to these products.
Doesn't she look cute in her little onesie? Oh, and Dru put a clothesline up for me (you can see in the photo). Yay!

This is supposed to be an affordable project, but I find myself wanting to buy more and more fabric things so I can stencil them. That can add up! Caroline could end up with way more t-shirts than she really needs. :)
Megan- No, no free-hand here. The image came from a magazine. I traced it onto the freezer paper, then cut it with an x-acto knife.
Hi, Gramma! We are missing you all this weekend.
Yeah, you can do it on any fabric.. Pillows would me cute. I am thinking of trying aprons, kitchen towels, onesies.
