Lots to do today! Yesterday, with the help of my husband, I was able to get the layout for the shirt figured out. You can see a picture of the rough layout to the right. I think it is going to look really great. I chose the font Batik Regular for the quote. I like the faded look that it has. My husband liked the large raven. It is a bit bold. It kind of reminds me of American Eagle shirts. My plan is to dye the shirt a medium to dark blue, use a discharge paste to screen on the quote and the swirls, and then redye the shirt a light blue and print the raven in black. I have never tried using the discharge paste and then redying so I'm going to do a little experimenting today. I have a lot to do actually. I need to do at least one dye bath, coat some screens to prep for exposure, and I need to make my image transparencies. I guess it is time to get to work.
