TQS logo vinyl clings

[Renata]

Lois, good thing I had finished my coffee before logging on to the computer... I did the same as you!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: Rosemary, you are too funny!

Back to printing on vinyl. Does anyone know how that will work? I am thinking for it to show up you would need to have opaque inks. I don't know that to be true, but to me it seems so. I am thinking I'd have more success with the magnetic sheets. I am throwing this question out to anyone who is more savvy about printers, inks & such.

I don't know anything, but I would imagine that if the sheets are designed for inkjet printers then the inkjet inks would work fine. Might have to get some to try....

Hopefully it will work with Epson ink because that is what I am going to try.

I imagine like photo printing, you'd have to let it set and make sure it's dry before you handle it. I do have both the TQS pin and the bag and would like to see some type of label for other things.

I think this is a great idea. (Another thought was to use some of the remaining vinyl sheets to decorate my longarm. The grey is alittle boring and could use some jazzing up. I could do the TQS logo, or make a design of my own.) I don't think there would be a copyright issue for the TQS logo. I am still wondering if the ink would penetrate the vinyl enough to work on the car window. Would we have to reverse the image to apply to the inside of the glass? If so, would it show up well enough from the outside? Has anyone tried these sheets yet?

I asked Jeanie if she has printed on vinyl...NO! She has not tried it yet.

I'm going to try it with my Epson printer. It uses pigment ink. Give me a few days though...I have some sewing/quilting get-togethers this weekend and next week.

I can't beat Rosemary :wink: . I was thinking of
Quilting With the Stars
meaning all of us, because without us there would be no TQS

This idea brought more than a smile with my morning coffee. Nearly sprayed a mouthful all over my computer. Good thing I have a vinyl skin on my keyboard. We can always depend on Rosemary to keep us laughing. I cannot imagine what the personal encounter is going to be like when it finally happens. It is sure to be full of laughs. Rosemary, you are a gem!

Sorry about your computer, Lois. Actually I saw the slogan on one of the stalls at a show (last?) year, and thought it was fun.

Rosemary, No worries! My computer is fine. The vinyl skin in on the keyboard for a reason. Keep us laughing. I am prepared.

Jeez....Rosemary! You need to pose a SPEW ALERT for stuff like that!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

And about not having car antennas...have seen a lot of these short plastic flagpole thingies that mount
over the top of the window, then are held in place by closing the window. All the rage for flying
university flags during football season. Guess I could get one, remove the flag it comes with, and
attach a TQS logo flag. I could run the printer fabric thru the printer...hmmm.

I love the idea of a vinyl cling with the TQS logo on it! Looking forward to hearing what comes of this idea.

I have a tote bag that says: "Caution! Serial Quilter!"
