I bought some transfer paints at a quilt show earlier in the year: you paint on paper then iron the image onto polyester and the image transfers, but much brighter colours.
We had some fab results, but the most stunning was this tiger.
Stephanie used a printed colouring page (from google) and pretty much painted the whole tiger orange, planning to add the stripes later with embroidery thread, but the paint didn't transfer from the black areas so the detail transferred too.
Fab afternoon, thank you ladies :-)

These are terrific Benta. What a good idea to use a colouring page.
ReplyDeleteCool idea for a project!
ReplyDeleteFun to try something other than quilting.
ReplyDeleteGreat results all round! What a good idea to use a colouring page, though - and how lovely that the details transferred.
ReplyDeleteit always amazes me at how much th colours change and usually for the better when transfered to the fabric, the tiger is amazing
ReplyDeleteFab tiger, great results. Looks like a fun afternoon
ReplyDeleteThat tiger looks great. It looks like it was a lot of fun.
