Updates!

Everything is going well!
Will upload photos of our designs once we are finished.
So far Ruby and Shaleen have printed their designs and bought their t-shirts.
Sarah has more than one layer and has done her iceberg.
And Caroline is yet to start because she was sick.

We have learnt a lot about the screen printing process.
From the squeegees to the printing board, from spacers to the ink.
And most importantly how to do all of it!

Stayyyy tuned if you want to see our final outcomes after 1 term of SOFTTECH

Were all very proud of our designs and hopefully the outcome will be awesome!
