Changes- Smithers Centennial Quilt


This one to be exact.










OMG Who would have thought?


Whoa Nelly, what else can I do?




  1. If you can get bubble jet (product), you can use your own inkjet printer to do the same thing. Some printer inks will set into fabric once you hit them with the iron (some canon inks do) but other's will wash out fairly quickly. Bubble jet sets the ink on your fabric so it becomes permanent. You can take a sheet of regular paper, lightly glue (gluestick is preferable) a sheet of freezer paper onto the paper and then iron your fabric onto the freezer paper, set into your printer and print whatever photo/graphic you want to onto your fabric paper, heat set with the iron and voila!!! Your own masterpiece! My canon inkjet printer uses the permanent type of ink so I've never used bubble jet (yet!) and I can't explain how it works, via the blogger grapevine I hear it is super easy to use and works rather well though ;)

    If you want to know whether or not to buy bubble jet, just make a test piece and wash it a few times with your regular laundry or let it soak for a while to see how it does.
