Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Having an interest in textile printing,art,quilting and other visual crafts, I found Jean Ray Laury's book both informative and up to date on today's methods of image, computer transfer. This book explains in both words and in illustrations and nice photos.Laury, once the editor of "quilter's newsletter" has proven that crafting on fabric, transferring images to fabric and other imagery on fabric is doable by even a novice. Owning a computer and scanner, plus and ink jet or some kind of color printer would be helpful prior to purchasing this book. I learned how to transfer photos, scanned images, computer images from the internet etc. Quilters will have a blast with photo image quilts. Buy it !
