Seriously, they really are hot RIGHT NOW! I just put one of them on and I think I burned my back. We use a conveyor dryer to cure the ink on the shirts and they just pile up into a warm ball. We just finished printing and will have these babies on the cart next time it is out on Church Street. You can also snag one from Girlington Garage itself.
Dig some of the alternate hair cuts we had on the Garage Girl before we settled on the final one.

And check out the pictures here for the tiniest shirt we’ve ever printed.
Tick Tick has been dreaming, drawing, folding and churning out a load of new prints over the past couple months. All this new material, and conversation about Tick Tick’s future endeavors are out on Church Street, downtown Burlington, VT on sunny days. Stop by to chat and check the wares.
Nick was floating freely through the blogosphere and found a picture of a sweet Tick Tick designed T-shirt being WORN WELL, by Mr. Jeremy Mendicino. Dig it.
For the past couple months, Tick Tick adjunct and incredible illustrator, Colin-Patrick Charles has been working with David Strackany to produce a new design for a set of tees for Paleo. They had been communicating via email, delving into the seen unseen, Until NOW!
For the next couple hours, David hand rolled all the tees into tubes, taped them up and labeled them with their size, and made another point brutally clear, that we need an intern to do that kind of work.
All parties interested in rolling up t-shirts, mopping and vacuuming, cleaning squeegees and putting up posters around town please contact me immediately. This is a real opportunity to discover the inner workings of a screen printing business while being shamelessly exploited.
So we actually did a process print.! We have been afraid to try this for a while, just thinking we would fail horriblly. But we succeeded! Our Registration is about as good as you can get manually registering colors. Our registration which I would say is about 92% on is pretty incredible. 100% is impossible even with amazing equip. These are just test prints on 140lb French Paper, when we actually do the LP covers I will post finals!!
We had a busy couple of days printing! Check out some pics of the Mt. Eerie and New year posters being created!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rucchi and I were sweating bullets! We also did our first ever CMYK Process print, that turned out awesome. I will post pics soon.
We are in the process of printing the cover for the LP of the new Lendway album, who also just received a special review from the deli as well as a pizza named after them at Bite Me Pizza.
This print is our first attempt at a four color process separated print.
