Adventures in Gocco

Yesterday I whipped out my gocco for the first time and did some fabric printing. It was kind of a pain having to clear off my entire workspace so I had enough room to print but it was fun. It didn't really turn out quite the way I wanted but not bad for the first try.


The original

PA-70 screen for fabric printing

Checking to see if everything lines up and if the blue screen is there

Screwing in the lamps


Ready, set, FLASH!

Mixing green ink :D

Test print

Oopsies I registered it wrong.

Finally got it registering properly on paper but I can't seem to get consistent prints. I guess I need more practice.

Oh my gosh, it's pretty. I haven't got the patience for printing. I tried... once. And only cause I had to in high school O.o
