[@debrataylor7359]

Thank you so much! This is just what I was looking for. I want to make a quilt for a teacher who is retiring and want to put Bible verses on the squares. I think this will work perfectly. I can't wait to try it!

You are so welcome!

YOU ARE A BLESSING! I am making a type as image poster for my typography class and I love to mix traditional and digital mediums. I was going to screen print but this is beyond easier, seriously love what you do!!❤️❤️❤️

[@annakennel356]

Oh my gosh, the possibilities are endless for this technique. I have a vintage family recipe I plan to print on tea stained muslin. I have a inkjet printer. Should the graphic be sealed after printing? Perhaps hair spray or poly?

[@KMF3]

Good question

[@OurUpcycledLife]

I have never sealed or washed mine so Im unsure how they would hold up. I use it mainly on my signs. Would be worth a try and see how they hold up . Thanks for watching

Wow! I wish I had come across your video years earlier. I was trying to print pictures of my family on material for a quilt. I tried every method I could find and finally gave up and bought printable fabric paper. This will still come in handy because I need to add new family members to the quilt and won’t have to buy the expensive fabric paper. Blessings to you!!!

[@OurUpcycledLife]

It doesn’t hold up really well to machine washing

WOW! AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME video!!! What makes it so much more amazing is how 1; it’s kind of a hack & 2; how quick & to the point the video is vs those 20 minute long videos that lose me at the intro mainly bc I know it’s gonna take the creator of the video 20 minutes to get to the point. So this was a much needed change of pace.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

I try to keep my videos short and sweet!

Have you ever used freezer paper.? Just cut to size and press your fabric to it and run through the printer. I like this method better than spray adhesive. Love all your videos and have used several of your techniques.😀

I have and I didn't have good success?? Maybe my freezer paper wasn't a good quality one. Thanks for watching Sandra

Great tutorial, I have seen something like that years ago, here's what I wished I knew before starting that project, of course I was doing that for fun. I have tried that years ago on inkjet printer. the issues that I encounter was that some print were washout because the fabric absorb plenty of the ink. When I research I understood that the fabric need some sort of treatment before printing on it for better result. Maybe one will get better result from a laser printer.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Yes laser will be better

[@nancywiltshire9919]

Yes, would like to know, too.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

I haven't washed any projects that I have used it with. I mainly add them to signs ect. Nothing that would have to be washed. You would have to test it first and see how it holds up . Every printer could be different! Hope that helps. Thanks for watching Donna
