Sept Meeting

Due to some lack of communication it wasn't clear whether those who didn't attend the Sept meeting had not found out about the date.  The dates will always be on the blog (hopefully).  Jo did an Image Transfer workshop using wonderful black + white images.  The process Jo showed us required images produed from a laser printer or photocopier and using gel medium to transfer the images.  Chris showed us another process using a product called Citrasolve.  Some of the images using Citrasolve are not very clear; some images work better than others and also some were done onto pre-coloured fabric and some of these didn't come out as clearly as others.  Unfortunately I'd forgotten to take pictures earlier on showing some clearer images.  Helen had brought in some of her own images including Roman coins which turned out very well.  For those that missed it and would like to do the image transfer there will be an opportunity to do so at the November meeting.  It's been decided not to have a meeting in December.  Subs have gone up to £50 due to the cost of room hire.
