 the autumn season\, we will cut and layer vinyl before using a heat press

  also welcome to bring one piece of their own fabric or cloth to this acti
 vity. Please make sure it is made from 100% natural fibres\, such as cotto

 inyl to fabric\, high temperatures are involved and there is a risk of hea
