Looking for some custom pillows that match your dog. You can make this simple custom pillow using a collie, Scottish terrier, bull dog, Boston terrier, boxer, and pretty much any breed of dog.
Silk printing is a great way to print a lot of Specific Breed Dog prints on your fabric with just one piece of art. A large surface area of open work is needed to create cotton art, but beyond that, other materials are generally affordable and easy to find art supplies supply
I love these simple cotton printed Specific Breed Dog Pillows because you can make lots of them and give them as homemade gifts to anyone else who has the same dog as you. I know many people who take their dogs on walks together with other dog owners.
You can find most of the supplies you need to create cotton art at your local craft store. If you don’t have art supply in your city, then try to visit www.dickblick. com or www.pearlpaint.com. Their website is awesome and they sell everything online that they sell in retail stores.

The first step is to create a design designed for a specific dog breed. I recommend going online and typing in the name of your specific breed of dog. You will find tons of photos. Look for one figure. that will be the best work. You can also upload a photo of your collie, bull dog, boxer or Boston Terrier.
You can transfer your design by placing the screen over a special dog design and handling it with a pen. You can easily see through a screen by placing it on top of an artist’s lighted paintings, or even in a window when the light from outside shines through.
Feel free to use a simple profile to create this custom pillow. You can complete this project in one step because it is one color.
Now, if your specification is to have more than one color, then you will need to have more than one screen. Basically, you use one silk screen for each color. Beginners can find it easier to start with just one color and one silk screen.
Now, if you’re going to use multiple colors, go ahead and remove those screens as well. Just to make this clear, if you were making a Boston Terrier, you would cut out one sheet that is on the white parts and one sheet for the black parts. The second screen should line up above the first screen.
Now, cut out the specifics of the dog breed on each piece of skin with a sharp craft knife. Think of this kind of like creating a stencil.
Now we need to attach the first screen to the back of the screen with painter’s tape.
You can pre buy silk screens made at a craft store. You could also build your own wood.
Now, we need to print various paper-towels or layers of newspaper on the work surface. This is important because you need to absorb the paint. It also needs a padded area.
Place a solid Pillow cover fabric on top of the paper towels, and place the silk cover over the fabric.
I like to make marks on the four outermost corners of the silk screen for each fabric. This is important if you use multiple colors and multiple screens. You can use these notes later to frame the line.
Now they paint some fabric on a silk screen. You pour this on the top edge. I recommend that you paint a nice size puddle.
Then place the prone in the paint. You need to slowly draw the screen towards you. You should have an incline at a 45-degree angle. This is very important.
When it reached the bottom of the screen, the tilt angle was reversed. Repeat to the top of the silk screen in one light motion.
Now remove the silk screen and the pillow. Let the wet paint sit on your fabric and dry completely.
After the paint is dry, you can cut a second square of the same fabric. The face of the silk is covered with the First Dog Breed design inside. Pin three sides to your pillows.
Turn the pillow cover inside out. Insert the pillow.
Now, fold over the rough edges of the open side of the Prime Dog and cover it with another film. He closed the pin with straight pins.
Now close this part with a sewing machine, a new thread, or by hand.
Cut any threads and you’re done.
