the Invitation

Well, the invitations are nearly done and it was quite the adventure.  I got the idea from my friend Robyn to have the invitations printed on handkerchiefs.  I loved the idea but how does one print on fabric?  After a lot of research I found the best way was to print them myself by ironing freezer paper to the back and then running them through my inkjet printer.  The only set back is that they bleed instantly when they come in contact with water.
