What do YUDU?


This year I treated myself to a YUDU screen printer. I love it. I've been a member of www.yuduforums.com since before I decided to actually purchase the machine. It's a great place to research on the product and it's full of helpful and happy members. I highly suggest it for anyone interested in purchasing a YUDU machine.

Well, in mid-april the forums decided to hold a T-shirt Design Contest. Of course I entered and came in Third place, wooot. It was really fun. The winners are pictured above, my entry is the last one, 3rd place!

I designed a baby onesie. I did the actual design by hand with a permanent marker on a transparent sheet for the screen printing process. I first cut out the basinet on cardstock, and traced it on a fabric, cut it out, and hand sewn it to the onesie. I then screen printed my design on the onesie, in black and yellow ink. This was a fun project.
