Help! Pillowcase question, need quick answers!

[marty Jay]

Hi,

This is the first that I've heard that you can have the characters sign a pillowcase. What an awesome idea. Can it be a home made t-shirt or pillow cover? I've got an embroidery machine that can embroider Disney Designs, so I thought I would make just some small pillow cases already embroidered and get them to sign it. Think this will be okay?

P.S Any recomendations as to what kind of pen to use?

We used fabric markers and they didn't bleed through. Worked great!

ebaynut31,
Did you make your own iron -on transfer using your computer? of did you have it made elsewhere? If you used your computer do you need special ink? Loved your pillowcases, thanks for sharing your great idea.

Nope, I'm just getting a pillowcase.

You don't need a special ink to do the iron ons. You buy the blank iron ons at most any computer store or office supply store. They are easy to do.

Mike Bartenhagen,
Thanks. I think I will try to transfer a picture of the Wonder along with the sailing date and names. Hopefully It will turn out.

Marty Jay - Where did you find the Disney embroidery designs? I have a Janome embroidery machine and haven't been able to find any. Thanks:

T, just did it on the computer at home. nothing special. regular pillow case, regular printer ink, and regular transfer paper from staples or somewhere. I used a fat sharpie black marker and put it in the ziplock bag with the pillowcase. They ended up keeping the marker though! Oh well. Make sure you put your name and room number somewhere on the bag.

I have a Brother machine and bought some of the Disney Cards for the machine. As far as I know the Brother Machines are the only machines liscenced for the Disney Embroidery.
