Thanks for this video! It’s nice to see that I’m not the only one who has trouble finessing the blades on the Speedball cutter!

@Stitchinpost 3 года назад

Ha! All of us newbies seem to struggle with many of the same issues. Val makes it look so easy.

Was looking for stamp carving instruction and couldn’t help watching yours. I worked at the Stitchin’ Post, oh so many years ago and it was one of my fondest memories. Also cannot help but notice your striking resemblance to your mother. Thanks for the video and a fond memory of the store.♥️

Hello Valori, loved the way you explained everything so very well in detail. However, would love to know how you fix the 'colors' on the piece you have worked on, especially if they are items which need to be washed (e.g. bedspreads, table linen etc.). Many thanks.

@Stitchinpost 3 года назад

Hi Kety, The ink needs to cure for a week then you can wash as usual.

@ketybagwalla 3 года назад

@@Stitchinpost Thank you Valori. By curing you mean set the colors. So leave it as is for a week after block printing project is complete and then wash - washing machine is fine? Also does the finished project need to be ironed (front or reverse?) before putting it to wash..

@meenuvasan5775 2 года назад

Hi, I am from India. And my birth place is Jaipur which are famous for block printing using vegetable dyes as well as chemical dyes. To fix the colors, the first time you wash, soak it into one tablespoon of salt into two litres of water. You can first try it with a rough piece of cloth. Try it.

@ketybagwalla 2 года назад

@@meenuvasan5775 Thank you Meenu. Presume it will be the same process fixing process if using block printing water soluble inks out of tubes (chemical dyes?)

@DeborahReynoldsForestEdgeHoney 2 года назад

This is so cool! Thanks for the tutorial. Curious.. are you a lefty like me? I’m always looking to see how to do things left handed.

@Stitchinpost 2 года назад

Yes, Val is a lefty. Jackie, who does a lot of our quilting videos, is also a lefty.

Great video Valori. Say again what the block was called or made of? Would we find these things at an art store such as, Blick or? Thanks again, I'm a retired offset printer and I love all things printing. Ok, just clicked on your link and learned a bunch.
