heat method

Let me just interject here that the heat transfer method won't work for
all kinds of material. I (heart) PZKut, but my stash of it is still in
CA with all my other stuff. So I bought some Soft-Kut up here in
Seattle at a local supply store, and the heat method -doesn't- work for
that. However, if you trace the design (unreversed) with a pencil --
essentially just draw over the lines in the design -- and put it face
down onto the material and rub the back with a spoon, it transfers like
a -dream-, with clear lines that are quite able to be seen while carving.
