Many of you might be having an artistic approach towards life and would love to make use of this art during your leisure time. One way you could do this would be through a craft book, as you can gradually enhance your artistic talent through numerous ideas. Transferring patterns is also a craft work that requires your time and skills.
Things you require for pattern transfer
You need to have craft supplies, piece of material, transfer paper, craft tools, a transfer pencil, iron and ironing board.
Steps in executing a pattern transfer
Use your transfer pencil to trace the design you wish to craft - this is to be done on a hard surface. You will want to be precise and maintain consistent pressure when using the pencil to trace around the design, because if your stroke is too light, you may have difficulty working on the project and looking for the lines. You are about to transfer a reverse image of the one you have just printed. If the design is reversible then nothing matters but if it is not then you need to trace the image with your transfer pencil onto the other side of paper and remember that the side you trace shall face down on the material to be ironed.
The next major step would be to lift the pattern from the material - the material can now be reused and is all ready for your transfer project.
When transferring the pattern to the material with use of your iron, use a small square of paper. For the iron, you will have to be sure that it is only set to medium heat, and that you move it firmly, yet evenly over the pattern, and as for the pattern, it would, just as usual, have to be face down on the material you are using for the project. To see whether the pattern has been imprinted well enough on the material, set your iron aside and hold all but one corner of the pattern firmly with one hand - with your other hand, lift the fourth corner and check if all looks okay. To get the best results, you'll have to keep on ironing and do so consistently to make sure the pattern is imprinted properly.
