<\/p>\nI’m trying to rush through a few things on-line while Troy naps. My laptop was taken to the Apple Store today for repair – he is broken and needing a little professional TLC. With any luck, the Mac Genius said, he may return by the weekend. Keep your finger’s crossed that it’s true.<\/p>\n
This week there was lots of work on my entry for the month of softies…but I’ll post that shortly in seperate entry. <\/p>\n
I spent most of the weekend experimenting with printing on fabric. I tried this during the holiday crafting on store bought inkjet sheets. My printer wasn’t too happy about them and they are expensive – about $8 for 3 sheets. I’d researched how to do yourself and found a solution called Bubble Jet Set. I’m in love! Not only did finding the big bottle involve a wonderful trip to new fabric store (an old train station), I made a few new friends along the way who invited me to lunch and the shopping. <\/p>\n
After following the directions and preparing the fabric. I played with photoshop for images and Word for, well, words and here’s what I created.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
There were 16 sheets prepared on various weights and shades of cotton fabric. I was able to successfully print on 14 of them and used about 1\/3 of the bottle of solution. The bottle was $16. I think I have found both a better method (since my printer likes the homemade sheets better) and a more cost friendly method. Next I try different colors of fabric!<\/p>\n
