You will need
A white top or blouse (mine was a converted muumuu - £7, charity shop buy)
Screen printing kit (mine was by Artrain and cost about £3 from Ebay)
Iron and ironing board
Lots of plastic carrier bags
Sewing pins
Computer - with Photoshop installed - and a printer
Tissues
Water for rinsing brushes, also a tub of water for soaking and washing screens after use
Paintbrushes - ideally with a small, fine tip
Metal 30cm ruler
Palette knife
Fabric paints in the following colours(I recommend Pebeo opaque fabric paints, £3.99 at Hobbycraft and worth it because they're not runny like many other fabric paints ):
Other fabric paint colours you'll need, included with the screen printing kit, are:
Time
About 1-1.5 hours to trace each screen.About 12-15 hours for screen printing/ blending/ linear pattern painting
About 30 minutes for ironing and preparation
Difficulty
Very Hard
Don't be put off but I found this a tricky one and I learnt quite a bit on the job. It might have been down to my choice of equipment (the method in my madness was to avoid forking out £50-80 for a professional screen printing kit and not having access to a printing studio - unless you count my bedroom!) A word of warning - screen printing's a very messy business so take extra care to protect clothes and furniture!The Video Tutorial
