Taekwondo mom- I'm sorry for some dumb sounding questions here, but this is the first time I've used the dark transfers, and I need some explanations before I apply the pretty mermaid name you made for me. I've printed out the transfer on dark transfer paper, so it should appear right side up on the white, non logo side, right? And I'm placing it right side up on the fabric? I've only used white transfers before, so the image is always reversed, so I'm a bit concerned and worried that I have this right. With these dark transfers, it appears that the printing is on the top layer, but does the ironing actually transfer it through the paper to the fabric, once you've peeled the backing and ironed?When you remove the transfer after ironing, is there anything left on it? Not to be a worry wart, but I don't want to wreck this little dress I'm putting it on.
Also- with these name designs. Do I cut out an oval or rectangle around the name and iron the whole thing on, or cut out the individual letters? If I cut out an oval with the name inside, using the dark transfer, will the fabric's color appear between the letters, or does it show as a white oval with the name printed on it? Thanks for helping me, and sorry for being such a ninny newbie at this!
