Clover TRANSFER KAĞIDI...


 

Clover Chacopy – 5 Renk Transfer Kağıdı

Clover has come out with a Chacopy water-soluble tracing paper and a clever tracer pen. I have to admit that I was never wild about tracing paper and tracing wheels for garment sewing, so I wondered whether I'd like this product combination. Once I tried it, though, I was sold. All you do is lay the tracing paper (choose bubblegum pink, sky blue, banana, a sort of aqua-green-teal, or white) on the fabric, place your paper pattern over it, put a piece of clear plastic vinyl on top of that, and trace the pattern with the steel ballpoint of the tracer pen. It transfers the design right onto your fabric. The pen contains no ink—the ballpoint tip works by pressure. Since you have to press fairly hard, the plastic vinyl keeps the pen from tearing the paper as you trace. The other end of the pen is pointed but blunt, for making thicker marks.

If you make a mistake or if any marks show when you're finished stitching your design, spritz the marks lightly with water. They'll immediately disappear. Just remember not to apply heat to the marks before you spritz them, or they may become permanent. (This is true of any marking paper or pen, whether water soluble, air soluble, or permanent.)
