This is what I wanted the stencil to look like! This time it's a block print, and I've taken the design backwards a bit, more towards the original rubber stamp I made. The way a stencil is cut is so different to the way a lino block is cut, it seemed to make sense to take the marks into consideration.
A miscalculation somewhere means that repeating the wedge all the way round doesn't result in the tight circle I planned, but some overprinting helped. Another block is needed to fill in the gaps.
And here's another pic, just in red, because it's so pretty!

Wow, those are wonderful - I love that colour combination!
wow. so that's a block, and not a stencil? i'm amazed at the small details and straight lines. gorgeous!
The red is very pretty... but I like the pale blue and red combo too. They're both beautiful!
I love the second one just as it is! So cool.
Have a great weekend Jesse:)
Oh this is just gorgeous! I did love the stenciled one too! Is this one the same size/as big as the stencil?
wow, that's beautiful Jesse!
Love it!! great colours too.
This is great, Jesse. What are you applying the design to? Tablecloth?
those two colors look fabulous together.
just so beatiful!
You definitely are the block print queen!
so gorgeous jesse. and those colours...mmm!
plus i loved the dizzydesign link below, thanks for the heads up!
Jesse, this looks great. You give inspiration. I also have to do some blockprinting again. But I think it will take me a while. Because I just got my Gocco-printer and have to experiment with that first. Keep up the good work.
can i have dibs on acquiring this? i adore everything about it. everything. the motif, the colours, the fact that it overlaps. everything.
