I believe the more prints I make, the better they get. With each print I learn something about
- Layering
- Texture
- Color
- inks
- printing surfaces or
- composition
I brought that stack of prints to the local laundromat to heat set the inks – 45 minutes in a hot commercial dryer. Then I stopped by the local thrift store and gathered up a few more big pieces of white fabric.
No matter how many pieces of fabric I tear to size and iron, I always need more. I like to work up 4 or more prints at a time.

Oh what I great tip! I didn’t know you could heat set ink that way and have often wondered how to stop my images smudging so much when I print on fabric.
