hope this isnt too dunb a question does the face have to be preprinted on the fabric? Im having trouble finding fabric faces - or can anyone suggest a good place to find fabric faces?

oh yeah - i meant dumb!

Nope, there are many options for faces. You can find a fabric face and cut it out, or you can stamp a face using a rubber stamp, you can print a face by running fabric through your printer, you can draw a face and color it in, you can transfer a face on to fabric, you can use another material like polymer clay or paper clay, or sculpt a face with fabric, or use an iron on image of the face, or make a face out of anything you want. There are so many options open to you. Have fun trying some!

kimmer, you can also try 'transfer artist papers.' i've used them a few times. you can print on it from yr computer & transfer the image right on to fabric (& other surfaces, too). what's really cool about it is that it's much more durable than traditional iron on transfers. after you transfer the image you can iron right on top of it!

here's a link to a demo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tRYXHWP3GA
