The net in the middle is a game changer for stenciling fine details. No more issues figuring out where to leave "bridges". Thank you!!

You are so welcome. I was thrilled when i realized how this could work!!

Just thinking about your stencil with the silk organza, it isn’t useless.. you could use your squidgee and push silk screen inks through it. ;) might be an option.

Fantastic Idea Jane!

I’ve been waiting for this one! What a great idea. Clear, simple instructions. Like. that they are long-lasting. Thanks, Jane.

interesting idea - thanks Jane!

FYI. I believe that kind of tulle is called “English Tulle”. Way back when they made it from silk for wedding veils, but I’m sure now it’s mostly made of polyester. I’m new to your channel and I think Im already addicted🤣. You are a wonderful teacher and I’m so excited to try your ideas. Thank you!! Have a great day.❤

This is great. I've been looking for different ways of making stencils. Do you have the details of the thicker interfacing and did you fuse 2 pieces together?

Craft Fuse and yes, they were fused together.

Hi Jane…thanks for the tutorial. I was wondering if the stencil you made of the little squares was a double layer of interfacing. And if so, did it have the tulle between the layers?

Have you tried running the interfacing through a Cricut or similar cutter? I imagine you would have to do it twice, once in reverse, to have two pieces to fuse together. Might be fun to try....research!!!!

That's exactly how you would do it but I am sure it could be done.

you said you had to heat set the house paint ... how do you do that? Also do you use straight acrylic or mix with Fabric extender for a softer feel? Thanks... I really enjoyed the video.

@JaneDunnewold

Жыл бұрын

Treat it just like any acrylic textile paint. Cover with parchment and iron it on high for 30 seconds, on both sides, once it is dry. No need to make softer. A stencil needs to be slightly stiff so you can move it around!

Hi Jane! Thank you for this video and all your teaching! I have 2 questions. The first one is that I am not quite sure I understand why the interface should not be of the type of small dots of glue. I am not sure I can find such a fusible interface here in Spain. The second question is whether I could use non fusible interface and Mistyfuse or Steam a Seam, or any other cheaper fusible web to glue them together. Thanks a lot! Arielle

@JaneDunnewold

In general, the little dots don't melt into an even coating so they don't hold that well, compared to the interfacing with a continuous coating of adhesive on it. You could try fusible but then you would have to fuse it to the interfacing first - using a teflon sheet, I think. And that's because you have to cut through the fusible too - when you cut out the open areas of the stencil. It would be really hard to cut the fusible to match if it wasn't already fused to the interfacing!

Hi Jane am in the UK and can't quite make out what sort of interface you are using, could be my hearing as it seems rather fluffy and so would you mind letting me know the type of interface you are using, a brand name please. Thanks

@JaneDunnewold

Жыл бұрын

Of course. The interfacing I use is a Pellon brand spun polyester product and it has a fusible coating on one side that will melt when exposed to heat, which is why the layers stick together. Maybe someone from the UK will weigh in on an equivalent brand there. I'll ask around!

OMGosh Jane! I absolutely LOVE you. Hot dog! 😂

Surly it’s cheaper using paper?

You might be surprised. But these are definitely long lasting and will never disinetgrate.

You didn’t tell us what the heavier fuse name was. The one with the squares. And we don’t know how to wash them out. I’m thinking submerging them isn’t a good idea? You did say brushing them off would work when you are making them. Is that how you always clean the,? Doesn’t the paint stick on the interfacing?

Craft Fuse. And once these have been coated with acrylic paint, they are waterproof so you can rinse them off in the sink.

During the pandemic I used my Cricut to make lots of stencils using old xray plates donated by friends. They have been very successful and hard-wearing. I love being able to make things for myself at minimal outlay and the lockdowns we had in the UK gave me the time to explore and lrearn new skills. This video has given me a new skill to add to my arsenal. Thank you Jane for sharing your excellent idea. It takes stencil making to a new level! Carol UK
