I love I need to learn more…
Sherry spoke of an app that posterizes photos and one that divides the photo up into several pages in order to print an enlarged photo. I assume they are two different apps. What are the names of the apps?
What app is used to enlarge a photo and make it print on 4 sheets of 8-1/2″x11″ ?
What is the name of the app you use for turning the photo into a line drawing?
Hi David,
Sherry Kleinman uses an app for the iPad called Tracing Paper to turn her photo into a line drawing.
What is the name of the app that the guest was referring to in reference to where you can print on fabric paper and color?
Hi Rosemary,
Sherry recommends an app called Tracing Paper in this episode of Quilting Arts TV, but says you can use other drawing apps available as well. You can download her instructions for this project instantly if you click on it’s image in the blog post above. Happy drawing!
