Directions
Lay the design you wish to transfer face downward, on any flat
surface, and dampen the back with water until fne outlines of the de
sigTushow clearly through the paper. A wet cloth will serve the pur
pose of dampening, but a small sponge is better. Spread the material
on which you wish to transfer the design on the table or on any
smoothhard surface; lay the dampened design, still face downward,
on the material, cover it with a dry sheet of thick paper or several
folds of a newspaper, and rub with a slight pressure, using a handker
chief or dry cloth, until the design- is entirely transferred. During (he
rubbing you may readily see whether enough pressure is being applied
by lifting a corner or end of the design and noting how it is taking.
The whole process is very simple and, after a trial or two, you
should be able to make a perfect transfer to any kind of goods. Do
not wet the transfer sheet too much. Do not wef the material, and do
not rub the face of the design with wet or damp fingers.
Several transfers may be made from the same design, it being only
necessary to redampen the back of the design sheet for each additional
transfer. The design may be readily removed from the material by
washing the material in warm water and a little soap.. The ink .with
which the transfers are printed is absohitely harmless, and will not in
jure the finest fabric.
Cover or cut out letters in making the transfers to goods.
