Plaid Fabric Tutorial by AllFades

Oh yes! You can do the same thing with squares I recently made my own checkerboard print you do it the same way with measuring and taping off the areas to paint.  What you should do is color the pattern you want on a piece of paper and then plan out how big you want the squares and then go one color at a time.  Otherwise it's about the same  If you need I have pictures of how I did the checkerboard and can put them up for you to see  Let me know! Hope this isn't too late for you sorry! 

Hello! I'm glad you can use the info! I used masking tape that you used on walls when painting! I made sure I got the kind that sticks really well though because you'll need to be careful that the paint won't seep under the tape to make your lines wonky.  Just get the kind that sticks well and then make sure you press it down well on the edges and you should be fine! You might want to test it first to make sure you can figure it out too! Hope that helps!

Ah! I'm glad it helped!

Not really, it's pretty much like any screen painted t-shirt.

You should! It'd worked great for all kinds of patterns I've needed to make over time~

This method works with really any kind of fabric paint as long as you get the kind that's meant to act like a screen print instead of like puffy paint if that makes sense? Your country probably has something similar!  I hope you can find what you want if you do decide to try it~

Hi! I can tell you right off the bat that it's usually easier to paint a darker color onto a lighter one then vise versa so I'd paint the golden lines on a light yellow fabric

No problem! Hope it helps!

Hahaha! But I like perfection!

Wow!!! I'm so sorry for the late reply! You can do this with any fabric I used plain cotton in this and it did show on the other side but it wasn't a problem for me but I've also done it with twill and poly blends so you can use whatever fabric you need for the job just remember if it's thinner fabric you may be able to see the paint through on the other side so do a test to see how it works first! hope that helps!

I definitely just used masking tape, just make sure you rub all the edges down so the paint will be less likely to seep under it.

Not a problem! I glad it could help!

Thanks so much!

Uh...I don't remember anymore sorry. It was just a pattern for jeans I think though. Sorry.

It does make a difference if you are doing darker colors on lighter fabric or vis versa. You'll want to add enough to cover the blue for sure just try to add enough to cover but not so it's bloby if that makes sense. Like just enough that the blue is covered and you may end up having to do a second coat. I had to do gold on blue for one and I had the same problem, some of the paint did want to flake a little bit but I haven't noticed it doing it anymore than the first time washing it, I hate to say it's trial and error but it is a little bit. I hope that helps some. Good luck! And feel free to keep asking if I'm not good enough at explaining I'll try again

Thank you but oh wow! I almost think that's more work then what I ended up doing owo good job!
