Making Sun Prints

Sample sun print pillows from Blueprints on
Fabric

On a recent trip to Vashon Island, my friend Carol introduced me to artist Linda Stemer, who makes chemically-treated cotton and silk fabric for sun prints.  (She sells the fabric online at Blueprints on Fabric.)

It was fun looking at samples of the blueprinted fabrics Linda had on display, but it was even more fun making our own blueprints following Linda’s super-easy instructions.  What a perfect way to take advantage of our sunny summer weather.

You can see the entire process at this link.

I framed the feather print I made.  It goes well with our blue guest bedroom.
