If you can't find the printed fabric you were looking for...

I was looking for a fun printed cord fabric to make the Babushka coat from Ottobre design 4/2011 but was not able to find anything locally. That is when I decided to "print" my own fabric.
My tools
The tools I used:
  • Fabric paint, I used Pébéo white opalescent
  • Stencil, I made my own from a stencil blank
  • Stencil sponge or small rigid brush
Finished result
I am very pleased with the result, the stars are a pale gray and have a slight shine. They give a much more whimsical look to the finished garment.
