Textiles...Block 2...ideas development

As my project is based on transient memories, I thought I would focus in on the quick degradation of these unwanted memories.
I started to experiment with altering an image on photoshop then transferring it to fabric somehow...I bought some T-shirt transfer paper which I printed onto, then ironed onto my fabric.
I choose nice tight weave cotton so as the fabric would be as smooth and easy to print or draw on as paper/canvas.
photoshop images printed onto transfer paper...

image on paper cut out and placed face down onto fabric...


 transfer paper was then ironed onto fabric.  Iron hot with steam settings turned off completely...

The type of t-shirt transfers I was using were for light or white coloured fabric.
