Re: [AussieFeltmakers] Silk

Hi ladies.
 
                       Ardione,  how about trying an iron on stabilizer or maybe a wash away spray adhesive .
I personally have only pin my silk down onto my cardboard cutting board.lol
Then marked lines with soft pastel because it washes out- but marks easy, then I un pin an cut very carefully.
Good luck.
 
 
On another note maybe we should have a tip or technique a week/fortnight/month? Then we can either try it out or at least chat about it?
I was thinking to of maybe a challenge once a month with a small prize?
I would be happy to sponsor a prize.
Just some more ideas.
Nat

Hi Krishna,
 
I haven't had any other advice yet.  Thanks for the information I'll have to take a trip to the coast next week and see what I can come up with.
 
Is there anyone out there that would be interested in a Journal exchange.?? Or maybe a handmade key ring (though I think I'd need to put thought into that one).
 
take care
Ardione

How did you go Ardionne,

Did you get any advice? This is not something I know heaps about, but I know there are products available at places like Spotlight or Lincraft. I think there are names like washaway, solvy, and I can’t remember any more. I know when I made a silky material quilt I used whisper weft, but I left it on the material. It was great and made a huge difference, it was so much easier to sew.
