Lictenstien pillow *NOW WITH TUTE*

[kval1]

i love Lictenstien designs and wanted to make a pillow so i redrew in illustrator one of his ladies and transfered it to fabric and made a pillow ( used piping for the first time and it makes it look more professional i think)



here is the tute i promised...

here is all you need to transfer - thinner, laser/colour photocopy, burnishing tool, somthing to put it on.... REALLY good ventilation


brush a small amount of thinner to the back of the copy (not too much or it will smudge it and not get a clear transfer)


rub like crazy...


look to see how its going and work parts you have missed...


as you can see its as easy as that but it is in reverse....

This came out great! Very nice piping too!! Can I ask what technique you used to transfer the image?

Thanks!

That's so fabulous!
I can totally see how it would *pop* on a sofa!!!

The piping really finishes it beautifully!
Love it!

i did it by printing out a lazer print at officeworks and solvent transfering it....
