Iron Ons That are Spot On

Using specialty inkjet or laser printer IRON ON PAPER and/or prefab iron on letters that are suitable for home printing and ironing, create an iron-on for your partner that will suit their tastes. You must read their profile and ask questions, if necessary. While you're at it, make something for yourself, but be sure what you send is a design that would be appealing to your partner based on what you read about them. If it's knitting pastel baby blankets that they like, then don't send skulls (unless you read they like that too).

What you send should roughly take up a standard sheet of paper 8 1/2 by 11 inches or the international equivilent. It's up to your partner to decide what he/she will apply the design to. You may use the paper that is for light colored fabrics only or you may use the paper that is for dark colored fabrics. But EVERYONE should note that the methods used to print and apply the two types of paper are DIFFERENT.

Each participant will have to do the following for this swap:

1. Complete their profile so that their likes/dislikes are made obvious.

2. Send a mostly original iron on design that may be made of various smaller components but is about the size of a piece of paper. I say mostly original because you can include the premade letters if you like, but the rest should be something you design.

3. Send instructions- scanned, photocopied, written out, whatever, describing how the manufacturer says the material should be applied.

4. Protect the design well for mailing. You'll need to provide a hard sided mailer or sandwich the design in firm cardboard. This is as important as creating the design in the first place. You must make reasonable effort to ensure the design reaches your partner unbent.

5. That's not too much, is it?

Newbies and international participants are welcome. I reserve the right to remove those with questionable histories of no-sends so that everyone gets a treat!
