how do you get the pictures to stay on fabric so you can wash it ?

I can't get mine to stay
|
I just follow the instructions on the package of fabric sheets that I buy. I send them through the printer. Let them set a while, and then wet them and iron them dry. It works for me.
|
You have to have special fabric or treat the fabric to make them stay. I got mine at Hancock fabrics and it holds just fine.
|
I have used EQ fabric, and the one thing I have done is letting them dry completely like 10 minutes.
then I would put them in water with a spoonful of Downy, swish it around, and then rinse in cool water until it comes out clear. Lay flat to dry and press... Always works for me, but I have only used this process. Have fun.. |
I use printed treasures most of the time and it works fine.
|
Use the specially treated fabric, follow the directions, when it gets to the rinsing stage use some Retayne (according to the bottles label) to help set the ink :D:D:D
|
what kind of fabric is treated will the fabric store have it and know what to give me?
|
If you want it to be permanent I would suggest going to a print shop and have them do it on their laser printer. I have used every brand and even made my own and used the setting solution and still get fading. Laser printers use dye instead of ink and they are more permanent.

I cut freezer paper to printer paper size,iron on muslin[ or what ever ]put it in the printer and print a picture.
