Screen printing my final dress

Using special ink and a personalised screen I was able to screen print the text rather than stencilling it on. It ensures less mistakes and is more precise. It took until 8 at night to do my negative prints, solidly working all day, but less time to do my cream dress as i was more used to printing the text without blocking the screen. One the screen is blocked the ink wont press through and it has to be washed, this is frustrating when printing large pattern pieces. I enjoyed printing and believe the pieces of the dress have been done to a high standard. A few parts went wrong and full pieces had to be redone, but I wanted to ensure that each part was done the best I could.
