on my journey to find pre-loved fabrics with an australian story, to create bags with a story that will then continue with the buyer

    bugger, how do i make the printing last?

    any idea how to make the printing of my stories and logo last? i was super proud of myself that i found a good way to print different stories and my logo directly on the fabric by using my canon laser printer. i ironed the result and was very sure that would set the color and make it wash-proof. well, one wash of the jeans completely wiped out the logo .. bugger! 

    can i do something else to the print to make sure that it lasts? is there another option to print one-off stories for a reasonable price and attach them to the bags?

    before and after pic ...

    crafted from re-used australian materials, songlines' products inspire you to explore their past and create their future ... bags with a story. the start of the journey.

    the name 'songlines' was inspired by the dreaming tracks of indigenous australians, which are invisible paths across the land (or, sometimes the sky) which mark the route followed by a localized 'creator-spirit' during the dreaming. The paths of the songlines are recorded in traditional songs, stories, dance, and painting ... I want my bags to pass on similar stories :-)
