Happy Birthday!
Everyone loves a good birthday celebration, right?  Etsy is celebrating it's13th birthday by having a sale from June 18-22.  All shops were invited to participate, so you're bound to find some great deals next week.  In the PGFiber2Art shop, all items will be discounted 10% during the sale.  Use code ETSY13THBDAYSALE when checking out to save on your order.  There is no minimum purchase required, and you can use the code as many times as you want from June 18-22.  So check out the screens in the shop or get those custom screens made that you've been putting off! 

Also, we have an ongoing discount for first time purchasers.  If you have not purchased from our Etsy shop before, use code FIRSTORDER10 when placing your order.  Or feel free to forward this offer to a friend you think may be interested in our screens.

New Screens 
We have added 3 new screens to the shop.  First is a hand drawn mum that is available in 3 sizes - 5.5 inches, 4 inches and 2.5 inches.  They may be purchased individually or as a set.  (Variety of size makes your design more interesting.)  Use to create an all-over random print or a planned pattern.  We also have a "bubbles" screen, which again, can be used to create a specific effect or an all-over design.  And third is a crackle screen.  We already have one crackle screen in the shop, with more rounded lines.  This one has sharper angles.  Both are effective for adding texture and background. Check out photos of prints of all three in the shop at https://www.etsy.com/shop/PGFiber2Art. 

Printing Class at Artistic Artifacts
Our Thermofax printing class is again on the schedule for October 27 at Artistic Artifacts, an amazing art and sewing store located on Eisenhower Avenue in Alexandria, VA.  If you have not been there yet, please do go check out the shop in person if you are able or online for all their wonderful supplies as well as classes.  They were selected this year as one of the top 10 shops in Quilt Sampler magazine, Spring/Summer 2018.  Our class is Print and Collage with Thermofax Screens; watch for it to be added to the website.  After spending some time on the basics and printing up some fabric to work with, we will use those printed fabrics and design principles to create a 12" square collage.   Beginner or experienced screen printers are welcome to join the fun as well as anyone who has previously taken our class.
