We just recently purchased Ana Lisa Hedstroms DVD, and we found it to be just perfect except, we are very disappointed in that we can’t figure out how you get folds to be permanent on silk fabric that is already surface designed, we don’t want to do any Arashi dying.
We just want to wrap our pre-designed silk on a diagonal using sting, we are only interested in getting the folds permanent, not any of the dying process. We thought when we purchased your DVD it would be a little clearer on how you get the fold permanent with dying
My question is, after we wrap it, I’m guessing we wet it, but do we need to steam it, apply heat or what do we need to do?
Thanks for any help you can give us
