Star Stencil Print T-Shirts
A simple classic pattern used to decorate some kiddies T-shirts.
Blue on Grey for my grandson and pink and white on black for my granddaughter
A simple project. I was even able to enlist the help of my 4-year old grandson, with a successful result.
To begin, I pulled the t-shirt firmly over a wooden chopping board. This flattened the knot fabric nicely, provided a good smooth base to print on. I positioned and then secured the stencil to the T-shirt with packing tape. This resulted in leaving no open space, other than the stencil gaps. Rather safe than sorry! The fabric paint was applied with a small sponge roller by my eager grandson. We were all delighted with the result. Later I applied blue paint stars to one of his pillowcases.
I used the same star stencil print on my grandaughter’s T-shirt, and included some smaller white stars too.
Alll in all a very quick and satisfying project.

This was a fun project in my journey of exploring printing. I sourced the t-shirts very reasonably from Pick n Pay Clothing
