Heat Transfer Techniques (Textiles Handbooks) - Tapa blanda

Heat press is a relatively new way of embellishing, decorating, fusing
and layering fabrics, and has a limitless range of applications, from
fashion to fine-art, and interiors to installation. This book includes exciting new
methods using the heat press developed through extensive experimentation.
Techniques covered include: flocking, foiling, phototransfer, fusing,
sublimation printing, heatsetting and embossing. Each process is
explained in detail, with instructions for simple experiments and
suggestions for further investigation. The methods featured have a
comparatively low impact on the environment, and often utilise recycled
materials or offer the opportunity to upcycle.
The book has been carefully tailored to be suitable for a variety of
skill levels, and includes affordable domestic options - such as heat
pressing using an iron - as well as more ambitious and specialist
techniques and materials for those with the resources, such as colleges
and established textile artists who have access to a heat press.
