Good morning,
Bird Brain Designs had an interesting post yesterday over using Fabri-Solvy and Transfer-Eze to "transfer" your embroidery designs to your fabric. I'm curious about this as I normally use a light box (but I have a harder time transferring designs on darker fabrics).
Since this is a stitching group, have any of you used these products?
Happy Spring!

p.s. I hope there's no problems posting these types of questions to this blog - thought it might be relevant and interesting.
1st SAL.....Peg, Dale and I committed to stitching Anni Downs - A Gardener's Journal in March. I blogged about this on my blog thinking maybe one or 2 others may join us and lots of girls indicated an interest so I decided to start this blog where we can all encourage each other to meet the goals set along the way....March 2010 -March 2011...........
2nd SAL ......well so many of the girls wanted to continue on with another project and some new girls joined us and now approx 91 girls are stitching Natalie Bird's Tis the Season. March to Sept 2011...............
3rd SAL....many girls want to stick with the SAL so now we have moved onto Anni Downs Some Kind of Wonderful - My Favourite Things Quilt.......Oct 2011-Oct 2012.........

Hi Elisa!
I have never tried anything like this. I read the post you mentioned and these products sound magical. Does anyone know where you can get these products from? I wouldn't mind giving them a go. (I'm not very good at the whole tracing thing!
I agree, I'm ok on tracing small designs but I avoid larger ones and don't even go near darker fabrics, would be interesting to try them out.
thanks for the info.........
I read the post and this sounds like something I would enjoy using...bending over the light box gives me such a neck ache...I try to only trace one or two at a go....and my lines are never straight..I usually use a ruler to do the straight lines in the design...I would like to know where to buy these.
