: : 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.

: Hope this helps...
: I have found the same product, and it works better than you would expect. I was looking for the bottle. it was rather hard to locate in an art store, and I believe it was associated with fabric on the label...the sales people usually won't know what you are looking for
I found it in Hyatt's in Rochester, NY
