Last night, I was waiting on my son to get off from work and I had about an hour to kill so what better way to do it than go shopping? I ended up at Joann Fabrics and bought a new ruler and a package of heat transfer paper, PrintedTreasures...Both of these were on sale, so I don't feel too guilty. I wanted some of the transfer paper so I could make my Civil War Block with Lincoln in the middle. I have never used this stuff and I'm hoping it's easy to use. I wanted the new ruler because one of my friends said she loves this 4" X 8" Omnigrid Ruler and uses it all the time. I usually go with what she says as we do alot of things the same way...So, I bought it and I'm going to see why she likes it so much....
I'm going to try out the transfer papers tonight after I go to Weight Watchers. Any words of wisdom, suggestions or things I should watch out for on this stuff? Til next time....Linda

Next time I go to JoAnn's, I want to get that size ruler...
I've used double-sided heat transfer paper and it worked like a charm. Just read the instructions and it should be a snap. I understand that one must make sure the glue side is AWAY from the iron before pressing... I was uber careful and didn't have a prob...
Love Joann's....glad you got some things you needed or wanted on sale...
I am 85 miles from the closest JoAnn's fabric. When I do get a chance to go I think it may be a good thing I am not closer. The last time was there I bought an Omnigrid 6" X 12" and I am using it often. I will check out your 4" X 8"
No advice on the transfers :0( Sorry.
BUT, DO keep us informed on the process and how it goes :0)
Looking forward to see how you go with the heat transfer paper. I haven't used it before.
