sutton hoo samples



i'm playing with this transfer solution to get my photocopied images on to fabric, i'm not sure how permanent it will be - does anyone out there have any experience of using the stuff? i've manipulated my image of the helmet on photoshop elements to get a ghostly effect - well that's the idea lets see if it works

  1. Yvonne - I've just tried to get a photocopied map onto fabric. I used fabric fixative on the paper then pressed it onto the fabric - probably didn't wait long enough for it to dry before rubbing (circular motion)the paper off. Mostly the marks stayed - BUT using Gesso is supposed to be good, and I DID do a sample of both products! Good luck!
