I Have Found The One Whom My Soul Loves

Hello, Friends!   Marilyn here.  Today (June 22), my husband and I are celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary.  Hard to believe it's been 25 years - it went by in a blink of the eye.  I'm a very lucky woman to have found the one whom my soul loves.

My project today is a pillow cover that uses the Bible verse from Song of Solomon 3:4.

I purchased a pillow cover from Walmart.  Can't remember what I paid for it.  It's a hounds-tooth pattern in polyester.

Using my Silhouette software, I simply typed the text out and sized it at 10" x 8.25".  I sent the design to my ink transfer printer (Ricoh SG7100DN).   The PowerDriver software that manages my printer flips the image for me and prints it out on Transfer Paper.

I pre-heated my heat press for 375 degrees.  The ink transfer paper is positioned in the center and covered with a Teflon sheet.  I pressed at 375 degrees for 20 seconds.  The ink transfer printer I use is meant for cotton fabrics only.  When I pressed it to my polyester pillow cover, it did transfer fine but also made a dark square around my image.  Personally, I'm OK with this.  After all, I have found the one whom my soul loves... what more could I ask for?
