Elizebet, let DBF that the fabric is perfectly safe to send through the printer. I have used this stuff for years. I change my setting to a cardstock just because it's heavier. There should have also been an instruction sheet with it. The only thing you need to be aware of is to get the sheets flat (under a couple books for a couple days) so that what you print comes out nicely. Have fun. Gerry
its not that he won't let me or that he thinks its not safe, its more that he wants to be the one to print it because its then his fault if it goes wrong!
There was an instruction sheet with it..am just sorting out betty boop and marylin monroe pictures to go on it!
Elisabet,I am happy that you liked what I sent. I have to wait a very, very long time, but I am looking forward to it. It sounds very exiting.
Elizabet, so glad you liked what I sent...always a little worried you know. The tatted edging was my first attempt at beaded edging...funny I give away nearly all of my tatting and forget to make myself some to use too. I know you will have fun playing with your stash...I'm looking forward to getting my box next month!
Hugs,
Iris Susan
I loved what you sent susan!
That was your first attempt?!? You are an incredibly talented lady. Am still getting things together for birthday squishies.
