People of all ages can enjoy this fun, easy way to transform natural absorbent fabrics with unique designs

• Apply pastels directly onto fabric

• Cover completed design with a clean sheet of paper or cloth, and press over it with a hot iron to set the dyes

• Once set, the design is permanent and won't wash out

• If you're not happy with your design, don't iron it, but wash it out in cold water and start again

• Works best on natural, absorbent light-coloured fabrics such as cotton, line or silk
