    Hi all,
    Will somebody remind me.... is it okay to use Magic sizing, or should I use starch? And the pigma ink will be okay over the top of that? And then heat set?

    CLM so sorry to hear about your father. That is always tough. I am playing catch up too... had one death, and now another very close. I may not get all 173 done.

    Thanks for the help!

    I wouldn't use Magic sizing or starch. Some people are sensitive to any scent. Just heat set after signing.

    I am so sorry to hear about your losses! Its been a tough year for alot of us loosing someone. My thoughts & prayers to you and your family!

    Oh.. that was a very kind offer. I think I will be really close. I had a productive evening and have almost 150 done. I had been struggling with them coming out well. I rejected quite a few early on, but then I changed my stitching line a little more, and now they are soooo much better. I am now hoping I have enough white to finish all of them, but if not, I will send what I have. Yea, the finish line is in sight!

    Got some sandpaper tonight. Now I have to start signing. Looking at the pile it looks like an undaunting task. But I will get it done.

    You can do it. The sandpaper makes it go fast. I signed 120 in about 2 hours this morning. That included help from my 4 year old. LOL
