Creating Block Printed Shirts // Linocut Shirts // DIY

- I’d been trying all different methods for putting my logo on a shirt that didn’t involve purchasing a screen printing kit. My most repeatable, successful result involved the process of block printing I show in this video. No, the shirts aren’t for sale - but if that is something you would actually be interested in, please let me know in the comments.

Great vid. Two tips for ya, print twice to get a less transparent look. You have that smart frame so getting it to line up perfectly should be cake. Also cutting OUT the letters and letting the ink go into the groves is another look.- less screenprinty and more rustic. Also more fun to carve out vs avoiding the letters, less work as well..
Cheap dollar store craft acrylic paint (the kind that comes in flip top plastic bottles) holds up really well on fabric in this kind of application. I have a few shirts I made over a year ago that have been washed many times and they still look great.
+Kris B that's good to know. I consider trying acrylic paint. Thanks for the heads up!
Nice video man! I hope this inspires people to recycle some old shirts and have some DIY fun.
Just a little tip that could save you some carving time and ultimately help you get straighter and more controlled lines:
Instead of going with gouges from the getgo, use a Hangi To (Japanese Woodblock Carving chisel - They are in every basic set I'm sure you'll have one lying around) to trace your design before using the gouge tool. The Hangi To is sharpened only on one side and that's very important; You need to have the flat side of the blade facing out, towards the part of the linoleum you want to gouge. The angled or chiseled side of the blade should face towards your design. Hold the tool at a 60-ish degree angle and cut along the outline of your design.
Once that is done, gouge the part you want to discard with your preferred tool.
This ensures straighter lines and keeps the linoleum at the very edge strong so it doesn't wear over time and/or deform under pressure. What you're aiming for is an edge that's slightly slanted outwards.
It has been a few decades since I did similar tee shirt imprinting, but I always put something thin, and rigid, inside the tee shirt I was printing. Cardboard works.
Nice video. Thanks for the share.
Thanks Dave! Glad the cardboard was on the right track.
I liked within 10 seconds and was not disappointed, the best video so far describing this process.
I was able to sneak away and watch. Man, your videos are so good! They're just so clear & precise. Great job, Doug!
+Bruce A. Ulrich I loved that you had to sneak away to see it :) Thank you!
Doug, Nicely done. I love how you show the process including the figuring out fixes for obstacles. Your camera work always inspires me to be more intentional with mine. It looks great.
+Darin Beard thanks man! I've been trying to work more on moving the camera and getting better angles. One thing I figured out after filming all of this, is that I have to shoot at 60fps so I don't get those LED bars across the screen.
Thanks for this vid! I really appreciate the advice about mounting the lino on a block, and handling the shirt fabric.
Thank you for that! I'm starting research for a stamping projet and this video is very helpful!!
Excellent. I liked how you approached it differently that just screen printing. Cheers!
Thanks! Felt a little more handcrafted, though I’d love to try screenprinting too.
Really dig your video style! Always look forward to watching when my phone notifies me you uploaded!
Like the simplicity of the block print, and the frame for holding the shirts down was a great quick fix.
I may just have to try this with my logo for shirts!
+CrypticWorks wow, thank you! That means a lot! Your logo would be incredible as a block print.
DN Handcrafted you've convinced me! I'll have to attempt it in a couple weeks!
Came out great! Good idea on making that frame to hold the shirt down.
+YouCanMakeThisToo thanks for watching Caleb! I'll try screen printing one of these days, haha.
You always produce great videos Doug. And the kids look happy in their new t-shirts.
+Ted Alexander Thanks Ted! They put them on first thing that morning... and by the time I took the photos, I had to photoshop the food off of them 😂
Alright, son. You just earned yourself a subscriber. Nicely done.
+Lolita's Garden thanks for your subscription and kind words!
Fantastic video! These turned out great. Awesome job, Doug!
+Michelle Fowler thanks for watching Michelle! And thanks for the comment!
This was actually very helpful, thank you for an easy step by step video!
Great video, I have been wondering about this for awhile and never found time to research. This was very informative and you make the project look very approachable. Thanks for your awesome videos! Keep them up!
+Chris Martinez oh cool! Glad you found it helpful. Thanks for the encouragement! Good luck if you give it a go!
Doug, great video, as usual. It was nice to meet your handcrafted products... your kids.
+DIY Home & Garden Projects Thanks Bodie! There are a few more too, haha. They'll have to wait until a future video I guess.
Very enjoyable video to watch, and a very good idea for printing t-shirts cheaply. Thanks for sharing.
+NuManXplore It’s a fun alternative for sure! Thanks man!
Hey Doug, that turned out so cool! I really like the weathered look that it makes. As usual, your editing and film quality are second to none. Awesome pics of the kids too! So what's it gonna take for me to get my hands on one of those shirts? :)
+Fisher's Shop thanks man! I need to figure out the logistics of getting some shirts and doing a short run of the shirts! Would love for you to have one.
Try spray adhesive to keep the shirt from lifting and botching the design. Great vid bare information.
Fantastic video man! Lots of useful tips and very entertaining :) The shirts came out great. I definitely want to give this a try.
+Crafts With Ellen thanks so much! I'm excited to see how it works for you! I just watched two of your videos, and they were excellent! You do an awesome job explaining the process, keeping interesting camera angles, etc.
DN Handcrafted Thanks! Right back at ya! I'll be sure to let you know when I give this a try. Looking forward to seeing your future projects :D
great video
Hello, thats really nice, but what kind of inc did you use. Is it just random block printing inc or some special inc?
3:35 oil based fabric ink
Can use speedball too if you have it from screen printing
Thank you for sharing!! You make it look pretty easy. Eager to get supplies now :)
Great job! This gives me lots of ideas for things to try thanks for sharing!
Great! Glad you got some ideas out of it!!
This was very helpful 👍 thanks
Great tutorial! Love this 🌸
Great finished product. Any reason you were against screen printing? I'm planning some shirts myself and am also trying to decided the method of printing that I can reliably and repeatably DIY
+42Fab - Metalworking and Multi-Medium Fabrication thank you & great question. The short answer is no. Screen printing is great. For me it was frustrating I couldn't put my logo on a shirt without ordering a bunch of things for screen printing - and then after several attempts (stencil, DIY screen, etc) it became more of a "I will find a way" - this process still required special tools, but I had the chisels and wood on hand and I actually liked the finished quality (not thick and potentially cracking) That being said, I will still probably do screen printing at some point - but will just use a screen printing ink that isn't as thick as the basic speedball white.
Another great video!
+Jolien Brebels thank you!!
THIS IS BADA$$!!! Awesome job.
+U Do It Thank you!
Great JOB!
Thanks Daniel!
Thanks for the video! Any curing process for the ink? how durable did you find the Speedball ink to be after some washes and use?
Very good video!!
+C.T.Tutorials thank you!
Nice video but ive been having some problems, within about 2 washes the ink is almost unreadable I'm using speedball block printing fabric ink letting it cure for 5 days and then washing , am I doing something wrong or is the ink I m using trash?
Awesome video man! I think I might try this out as well, if you don't mind me asking what brand of shirt did you use to print these on in your video (the charcoal and red colored shirts) or can you recommend a shirt brand for this?
@DN Handcrafted Have you done this process without glueing the lino to wood block? Would it create the same effect without
hey what paint do you use? :) I tested a lot of paints and the effects are different ... I care about a paint that will be durable after repeated washing and covered as nicely as it is at your place.
Wow
Why would you glue before you finished carving?
As a printmaker, I had to stop and watch your video. Great Job! May I ask what kind of Ink you used?
+Beth Harris thanks for watching! Do you have any suggestions for things I could have done better? It was my first time doing this. I used speedball fabric block printing ink. It’s still holding up well even after multiple washes.
You did a great job! Depending upon the ink used (I haven't used the speedball inks - I use mostly Gamblin oil-based etching inks) you might want to use a bit less ink, and just let the ink have a bit more time to
penetrate nd absorbe into the fibres before removing the block. Having said that though, I print primarily on paper and usually add the paper to the (face up) block, rather than the block to the paper, but what you did seems to have worked brilliantly, so my motto is "do what works for you" ;-) Thank you for sharing your creativity and results. I will have to give your method a try now.
+Beth Harris all of that makes sense, thanks! I want to give paper prints a try for sure. Will have to get some of that Gamblin ink. Thank you!
Yeah im asking the same question
Subscribed - I'll be back to watch this after 42Fab stream
+U Do It Cool! Let me know what you think.
Great idea! what kind of linoleum do you suggest. Do you think it would work well for a logo stamp?
+Hammer and Neil I think stamp material is much softer - but I've only done this once so I've not tried the softer linoleum they sell which might work better for a stamp. If you try it, let me know how it goes!
I will. Do you think a piece of linoleum flooring would work?
+Hammer and Neil I wondered the same thing, but it was like $8 for the gray linoleum at Hobby Lobby so I just bought that.
Hammer and Neil Just came across a video (from one of the other commenters) who shows how to carve stamps. Same process, just use a softer material: ruclips.net/video/sihNJy__EBU/видео.html
DN Handcrafted awesome thanks for the follow up.
Does the print wash out?
can you do apink designed logo??
👍👍
What kind of shirts did you print on?
Some were Fruit of the Loom, and some were Athletic Works. Cotton / Polyester blend T-shirt’s. Just stuff I could buy off the shelf or already had.
I like the video, but I thinks it's probably easier and cheaper to just buy a small screen and squeegee.
I do think a screen would be more repeatable. I also spent more on all my workarounds than I would have on a screen printing kit, haha.
Thanks for the kind thoughts Hunter!
