This weekend was spent at the Ink & Spindle studio with Lara Davies from Harvest textile studios, getting my hands dirty. Ryan, Jess and I (as well as Amber and Lien who we met there) had a great time learning to screenprint, and we were all pretty chuffed by the results.
Everyone hard at work

Ryan and Lara discussing the finer points of screenprinting. I'm so lucky to have a boyfriend who's genuinely interested in one of the same things I am! :)
