@@createandcraftwithchristine I actually had a lot of fun making a couple of things to print (on paper). Thanks again. I’d love to get the pro but holy smokes it’s expensive! 😳

Thanks Tammy - I hope you enjoy having a play with Canva again. Cheers, Christine 💙🧵🪡

[@dawnlloyd298]

So this is awesome! I downloaded the app and designed multiple layouts to print and stitch! Just waiting for my “fabric paper” to arrive.

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

This makes me so happy - love seeing others take an idea and have fun with it. Hope your fabric arrives soon 🤗

[@dawnmeldrum1267]

This was a great demonstration. I’ve looked at a few programs but this is certainly worth trying. Cheers

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Many thanks Dawn - I’m really enjoying using Canva and designing my own fabric. Cheers, Christine

Hi Christine 👋 it was good to hear about an artist from the 1800's in Melbourne. I don't know if I will ever use canva but this was a good tutorial! Oh, and I love the tray your tea is on! TFS 😊

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Thanks Kim - I loved learning about Fanny 🤗 The tray makes me happy to look at too. Hope your week is going well and you’re being gentle with yourself 💛

[@Ann-eh7ii]

Thanks for the Canva recommendation. I will need to give it a try. ❤

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

[@dennypondaview]

Well I didn't glaze over !!!! At mid 70s I think I can do that probably best on my phone rather than my ipad ..I'm good at printing on fabric...so many thanks 🎉❤

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Haha! I’m glad I didn’t make you glaze over. And so happy you have used it already 🤗

[@conniemaeran3723]

Thank you!!!!!,

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Thanks Connie - hope you have fun playing with Canva 💙🧵🪡

[@jackiehorn3724]

Thank you for this great information. I have been ironing fabric onto freezer paper, the kind that has that very thin shiny side. I iron it onto shiny side. And so far it has worked well with my printer. I am really interested in that software.

[@carriep.8997]

I do this too and works great for me too.

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Thanks Jackie - I really should try the freezer paper as many seem to get great results with it. Cheers, Christine 💙🧵🪡

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Great to hear it works well for you too @carriep.8997

[@artyfartyannie]

What a useful piece of software Christine, isn't it amazing what you can get for free these days? It seems pretty intuitive to use, especially if you have a touch-screen tablet like that, love the fabric you've designed, it's going to be wonderful in your project. Thanks for a handy tutorial and for the interesting story about Fanny Charsley, I hadn't heard of her. I've done similar printing on fabric by ironing Reynolds freezer paper onto the back of plain calico cut to A4 size - that enables it to go through a normal printer, then when you peel the paper off it leaves just the printed fabric, no residue is left from the paper and you can use the paper more than once too. Handy tip for people who happen to have the freezer paper already, if they want to try without buying the printable fabric :)

[@InfiniteOdysseySewCraftyHomely]

I've recently started using the Reynolds paper and am really happy with it and get good results 😊

[@DottyBeeVintage]

Thanks for showing this Christine, I’ve dabbled in designing and printing on fabric using the editing facilities already on iPad pages, but Canva looks good, I will give it a go - thanks Sally 😊💛🌼

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Thanks Annie - I love how much you can do with the free version of Canva. I think there is a PC version too but I haven’t tried it. Glad to share the story of Fanny too. I love learning about women who have done incredible things, particularly during times when this wasn’t something that many women had the opportunity to do. And I have some of that Reynolds paper so I really should give that a go too. Cheers, Christine 💙🧵🪡

[@suetsangaris5598]

Thank you Christine, that was very helpful, you made it look achievable. I'll have to give it a try.

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

I’m really happy you will be giving it a try Sue 💙🧵🪡 cheers, Christine

[@kathyrobb702]

Thanks for doing this video. You have encouraged me to try creating my own fabric! Exciting!

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

It always makes me so happy Kathy when one of my little videos can inspire someone to try something 🤗 cheers, Christine 💙🧵🪡

[@suepotts698]

This is so helpful thank you

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Really happy you found this helpful Sue 🤗

[@JudithWright5]

Thank you Christine for my re intro to Canva. I do have a design degree but used Photoshop for that. Will be having a play later on. Your design is lovely ❤

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Thanks Judith - you sound like you’ve got really fabulous design skills. I’ll be interested to hear how you find Canva - I like how it makes things pretty approachable for someone starting out. Cheers, Christine

[@JuanettesCraftingCorner]

I have the pro version. I tried to match the background of a picture like you did with the eyedropper. I did not see that eyedropper on the pro version. I'm sure it's there I just need to do a little bit more research but that was a huge tip. Thanks so much

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Thanks Juanette - I’m pretty sure I will end up getting the pro version as it does have so many extra features and images. It’s interesting how the iPad and iPhone versions look quite different even though they have the same features. Hope you are well and happy my friend xx

[@debstrong3272]

H Christine, this is a long shot... but sometimes when on a particular hypertensive drug people have symptom of a persistent cough & tickle, requiring a different drug. Not even sure u would be medicated as mentioned. Just dropping in this info as it happened to me. Cheers Deb'S

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Hi Deb - thanks for this suggestion (I appreciate you being so thoughtful). Alas I think it’s allergies as I seem to get better once I take the allergy tabs but they make me feel a bit floopy so o prefer not to take theme. Cheers, Christine 💙🧵🪡

[@anitajansen5610]

I don't know canva but i use an other program👍🧡💐

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Hi Anita - great that you have a project you like to use. Cheers, Christine 💙🧵🪡
