: I am searching for the product that is used to apply a print to canvas . It is NOT a heat set machine. It IS simuular to elmer's glue.This is a hand rubbing process. I do NOT want to make zillions of these. I am no threat to anyone's business. I only want to teach EDD adults and children a way to make craft items so they can make a little extra income. Thank you, Suni

We found this product (can't remember the name) at a craft store...Michael's in Atlanta.
You soak the photo in the 'glue', affix it face down to the fabric, then use water to
peel away the photo backing. I think there was some ironing in there, too, to heat set
the glue. Keep in mind that your photos end up reversed, so any writing will be backward.
Best to use images with no obvious numbers or letters, or the end result will look goofy.
