My original plan had been to fuse some contrasting flowered fabric to freezer paper and then copy some of my journal writing onto the fabric. But I cheated. I am running flat out with other projects and household chores and I didn't have time to play with this technique. So, when I was in my local quilt shop on Saturday, I bought some pre-fused fabric that is specifically made to go through an ink jet copier.
Here's the journal page copied onto the prepared muslin. Wow! Too easy. I am thinking I could make my own fabric designs. For a quilter, this would be heaven, especially if you wanted to work photos or special designs into a quilt. Now I want to try the freezer paper technique more than ever.
In any case, now that I have the journal page on plain fabric, I am rethinking my design for this part of the project. Maybe on my drive back to the capitol tonight, I'll come up with something I'd like to try.
