Use your own art!!!

Today I wanted to make a gift for a friend. I had bought some cotton bags from Hobbycraft, at £1 each it would be silly to make my own, but extremely good to decorate with my own art!!

So I selected an image from my file of a card I made a year or so ago, and printed it onto "iron on transfer paper". When cut out it is 8x8 inches.
This is the reason I own an iron....
Follow the instructions in the transfer paper pack VERY carefully, and never throw them away as some papers require printing as a mirror image and some just print as normal.
Remember to let the transfer cool before peeling....
to reveal your personal and totally unique image :D
I can now add decorations to jazz it up even more...
but as I sew by hand, this bit will take a while :D
Enjoy :D ...and
USE YOUR ART!!!!
