A strike-off for a pillow with a four-screen/five-color silkscreen print depicting a wooden covered bridge in wither, surrounded by evergreen and birch trees. The image is printed on double length fabric meant to be folded and stitched on three sides to form a pillow with a rough finished size of 5”x 7”.
This design was produced for the home goods brand Nettle Creek. Country Prints provided the printed fabric yardage, and Nettle Creek completed the pillows.
