Lynn In California
That's me ready to create!
About Me
- Lynn Cohen
- California, United States
- I started to blog in 2007 after learning to make a quilt, which led to my growing creativity in the textile world of art quilt making. My quilts have won prizes in juried art shows! And sold to go live in other's homes. More recently I have learned that I can draw and paint too. And my time is taken up with drawing in public cafes and other places. Lots of ink drawings over lunch of the people around me. I am a student of Sketchbook Skool for the past year and I enjoy the international community there. The teachers are wonderfully talented and I continue to learn and grow from this experience. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you come again soon. I appreciate your comments.

Hello Lynn
I've just started quilting and love your angle it.Could you please give me information on how you print photos on to fabric, inks, fabric etc.
I live in Crete and sources are scarce....
Jude, thanks for stopping by. I tried going to your blog but there was no where to leave a comment so hope you come back to get this.
I use "Computer Printer
Fabric to print my photos on cloth. The brand I have on hand is June Tailor, but there are others. I got this at a fabric shop. (Joanne's). Not sure what is available in crete.
However, one can make their own sheets by ironing muslin onto freezer paper if you have that and cutting it to size to fit into your printer.
The best printer ink to use is on the Epson printer. (mine broke so am using my HP printer). The former ink lasts better, the HP ink fades...so it's okay for a wall hanging that is not going to be washed. But not good for a bed quilt that needs to be washed.
You might Google about printing on fabric for more ideas.
I hope this helps.
Good luck with your quilting. Enjoy. I sure do.
Jude: PS: Just wanted to tell you I visited Crete in 1963 on a trip between Israel (where I was living at the time) to the US. I found it to be very charming.
