2. Lay silk over your image and iron until the silk is stuck to the image. Use a hot iron.
3. Place the silk in clean water, paper side down and leave until the paper falls off.
4. Lift the silk carefully from the water and lay face down onto a cloth. Allow the iron to cool and iron gently from the back to dry the silk.
5. When dry return the iron to hot, turn the silk over and place a sheet of baking paper/parchment, (not waxed or old fashioned greaseproof), over the image.
6. Iron through the paper then allow to cool. Then peel off. This method produces a beautiful result for surface pattern. The silk can be rinsed in warm water but will not take a vigorous wash.
