Fabric Sweet Heart
It worked! And amazingly easy, I must say. In my last post, I mentioned that I had tracked down some freezer paper to try printing on fabric. I ironed heavy linen to the shiny side of the freezer paper and ran the fabric/freezer paper through my printer. Then I just peeled the freezer paper off. It seems the freezer paper makes the fabric just sturdy enough to go through the printer.
I used the same image I used in my previous post. She is one of the collaged hearts from Iralamija's shop. I thought she'd make a cute hanging pin cushion. I also think she can stay out year round - what do you think? I made a flower from the linen and I added a trio of Maya Road heart pins.
I'm certainly going to do some more printing on fabric. I'm just so surprised that it worked as well as it did!
Wow Lori you have made a fab cushion and I love those heart pins.
