27 Jan 2012 - Fabric Crayon Transfer



Test on a small bag to see how well it works. Unfortunately the creases in the newspaper pad spoilt the transfer a little - next time iron the newspaper to flatten it first.

22 Jan 2012 - Ye Olde Clothes

Old T-shirt bought in the New Millennium year 2000 - happily it keeps on keeping on! Sun design is on the back.

Impulse shopping at My Fair Lady (fair trade boutique) 2002 - this was too small even back then but I liked the design, bought it & kept it. The boutique closed - sad.
Old jeans with newly added sun-inspired biro-ink doodles
