Putting photos and artwork onto fabric is becoming ever more popular and easier and easier to do with advances in technology. Now, anyone can do it - young or old.

There are several choices depending upon what you would like to do. You can:

1. Print photos or artwork onto Transfer paper with a computer & an InkJet or Bubble Jet printer & then iron or heat press the images onto fabric or clothing.

   If the fabric is white you could use: Professional InkJet Transfer paper or Super Soft InkJet Transfer Paper

   If the fabric is dark, you could use: Opaque InkJet Transfer Paper

2. Print photos or artwork directly onto fabric. This requires a computer and an InkJet or Bubble Jet printer. The size of the fabric you can print on is determined by your printer - some only accept 8.5 x 11" sheets, some also take 8.5" wide by any length rolls when in "banner" mode. Of course, there are also wider printers (wide format) as well. To get good and permanent results, it makes a difference if your fabric is cotton, rayon or silk.

   For printing on Silk, you can use:

   A. Bubble Jet Set - dip your fabric into this liquid, iron onto freezer paper, print on it, remove the paper.
