iron on transfer
I learned this from a friend in Colorado. This is how to make an iron on transfer for embrodery or fabric paint or even the wall.
Note: For transfer to a wall iron on to the wall directly (test on a small area first to make sure your paint won't get ruined by the hot iron)

Step 11. picture of something you like - I picked a picture from a pokemon coloring book of my son's.
2. iron on transfer pencil - I used Aunt Martha's brand from a set I bought my boyfriend for woodworking (the pencils are available at http://www.claytonsdm.com/moreaunt.htm for $3.00 for a set of 2 or just type Aunt Martha's transfer pencil in a search engine and there are many sources that sell them)
3. A piece of paper you can see through - I used a piece of computer paper but have used notebook paper before -
Step 2If the picture is faint make it darker with a regular ball point pen.
-
Step 3Put the paper over the picture and trace with the transfer pencil. Use dark lines.
-
Step 4This is how it looks when finished tracing.
-
Step 5I use cotton fabric because you need a hot iron to transfer to the fabric. Iron out the wrinkles and decide where you want the transfer. Set iron to hottest setting.
-
Step 6When the iron is hot turn the paper with the traced picure on the fabric and press the iron hard on top of the paper and hold for at least 30 seconds than move a bit and press down again. If you have a large picture do this on each part to transfer all the parts. You could pin the paper to keep it from shifting as you iron.
-
Step 7If parts of the transfer are faint just go over them with the transfer pencil so it is dark enough to embroider or paint. The transfer pencil will wash out when you are through with the embroidery or painting.
-
Step 8This is the picture with the lines darkened and ready to go. I like to do this with denim or other fabric that is too dark to trace through.
Note: As you can see in the pictures the transfer will face in the opposite direction of the original picture so if there is writing trace in regular pencil or pen and then turn the paper over and trace with the transfer pencil to make sure the transfer will face the direction you want.

No that is Ninetails the evolved form of Vulpix. The coloring book uses graphics from the American TV series so looks different from the manga or video game characters of the original Japanese. I didn't know that there was a similar Naruto character!! Thank you for the information, I will have to check out Naruto for more cute animals.
