Introducing – Our New Toy!!
Ladies and Gentlemen, here is what you’ve been waiting all week to see!
We have a new digital steam press!!
I have been wanting one for a few years now. Reading Laura Fry’s blog on steam pressing finished woven products to make them look nicer and more professional made me realize that I needed one for my own hand woven articles. I looked for one online and found the one I wanted, but it was $250 plus shipping. So I waited.
After teaching the weaving workshop this past weekend (and thus having the money to look once again), I found what I had been waiting for on sale for $199 AND free shipping! So, I bought it.
Another reason we wanted to get one of these for the studios are these:
Yup! Iron-on T-shirts. This one is a design of Scott’s called Father Wolf.
This design is called Dragon Punk.
And the one this stunningly handsome young man is wearing is called Bill the Ogre.
These and other designs can be found at www.graphimancer.com. And Scott does commissions, too!
We are so excited about all the uses of our new toy, we can hardly stand it. Father Wolf and Dragon Punk are being delivered tomorrow. I wish I had more T-shirts ready to put cool pictures on!
