  Step 1

  Start by placing whatever design you want to print underneath your screen.

• 

  Step 2

  Use a sharpie, Micron or other permanent black marker to trace your design onto your screen.

• 

  Step 3

  Things are about to get messy so now you need something to prop your screen up on incase liquid seeps through the screen.
  Take 4 thumbtacks and put them in the bottom corners of your screen.
  Flip your screen back over (so it's sitting on the thumb tacks) and place it over newspaper, or inside a cardboard box.

• 

  Step 4

  Take your drawing fluid and paint the area of your design that you want to be printed.

• 

  Step 5

  Let the drawing fluid dry completely.

• 

  Step 6

  Once the drawing fluid is dry, take Speedball's screen filler and place a line of the filler near the top edge of your screen and use the squeegee to pull the filler over your entire screen.

• 

  Step 7

  Let the screen filler dry completely- It's recommend that you let it dry overnight.

• 

  Step 8

  Use warm water and a sponge and wash off the drawing fluid. It should come off pretty easy, but you can lightly scrub at it with the sponge if you need to.

• 

  Step 9

  Place your screen over your cloth napkin in the area you want your design.
  Place a line of fabric paint on the top edge of your screen.

• 

  Step 10

  Use the squeegee to spread the fabric paint over your design on the screen, pressing firmly.

• 

  Step 11

  Make sure to completely cover your design area.

• 

  Step 12

  Lift your screen straight up off of your cloth and you're done!
  Let your design dry!
