To Transfer This Design.

l will do in a pint of hot
water, stir vigorously and remove
the soap. Saturate this design
with the soap and water mixture.
then remove the excess moisture
by partially drying the saturated
design or by applying sheet OF
blotting paper Place the mate
rial or fabric to which the design
is to be transferred on hard, fiat
surface, and lay the design face
down upon the material. Cover
with dry sheet of thick paper or
two folds of newspaper. and with
the bowl of a tablespoon rub,
pressing hard. until the design is
entirely transferred, being careful
to rub from rather than toward
you.
When rubbing you can see if
enough pressure is being applied
by lifting the corner of the design,
to note how well it is taking. Do
not wet the material nor rub the
face of the design with damp fin
gers. To remove the design lines
after the article is completed,
wash in warm water with soap.
The entire process is very simple,
and with a little care you can
easily make perfect transfers to
any kind of goods.
