The TAP paper makes a nice rich image, but does have a plastic feel to it. Allie writes that a needle hole in it will stay. I soak the FP method fabric in pure white vinegar, in a shallow food storage container, for 10 minutes. Then dry on paper towels or with hair dryer if you can't wait! I did something totally different with printing on fabric for this quilt, and will show it right now in my latest post.NickersMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11764002502323598388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763625189323741339.post-1211092298262298362014-11-05T11:13:06.218-08:002014-11-05T11:13:06.218-08:00I am so sorry for the loss of Benson. Your memori...I am so sorry for the loss of Benson. Your memorial crazy quilt will be a treasure. I enjoy seeing your process. (I love Allie Aller's book, too.) I have not ventured into printing onto fabric, though I have a couple of projects in my mind that would require it. Of the two methods you have tried, which do you like best? Did you soak in plain white vinegar? Or is it diluted? Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17345433893395079961noreply@blogger.com
