my MIL found me another amazing site! It has very vintage patterns like a 1920's redriding hood for one example among many! Take a look!

I do have a silly question....So once I print a pattern off ..how do I transfer to cloth?? thanks for any help

awesome!!!!
I use a transfer pencil... trace over the lines and then iron on to fabric ( mine is red,, may come in other colors, I"m not sure)
or u could put them up to the window or use a light box if u have one.

there is an embroidery pencil (red) you trace the design then iron it onto your fabric, it's permanat just like an iron on transfer, or there is tracing paper in different colors BUT it rubs off pretty easily, you could print it on fabric from your printer

What is the name of this pencil? This sounds so much easier than tapeing patterns to the window.

There is a product by Sulky, it's a sticky fabric like stablizer for machine embroidery and it goes through your printer. You print the pattern on it, stick it on your fabric, embroider it and then wash it out.

You can get transfer paper for you computer. Just follow the directions on the package.

The product is called Transfer Eze and you can get it in sheets or on a roll. Some quilt shops carry it but I found it on line and LOVE it. I did a large red work picture and it did not come off until I removed it with water. The only problem I had & it might just be my printer, but it slipped in the printer tray and the design was crooked, so now I use a tiny piece of tape at the top and bottom and wrap it around a piece of paper & it works perfect. I just remove the tape when it comes off the printer. I hope this makes sense, if not please
pm me & I will try to answer any question you have.

Thanks for the site. I really like that kind of patterns and will enjoy checking back often to see what they come up with in the future.
