To do the iron-on projects, print a mirror image of the design (that's the way we prepared the files) on heat transfer material on your own printer. Then iron the image onto white or light-colored fabric, carefully following the instructions that came with the heat transfer material. However, we recommend going to a place such as CopyWorks in CampusTown in Ames, especially for the large images. The price to print a letter-size, heat transfer page in color at CopyWorks is $4.95. But the most important advantage of a place such as CopyWorks is that the shop has a heat press that is designed for doing the transfers. And CopyWorks has staff members trained in how to do the job. We would suggest that you purchase your own T-shirts or other fabric ahead of time or go to your drawers or a thrift store and find a used one in good condition. That way, you have some control over the style and quality of the garment. Also, from what we hear, it would be good to wash the garment before doing the heat transfer.

This design is provided at no charge by Helen Gunderson, editor of the Gazette and a member of the Gilbert 125 Group.
