My favourite backpack

This activity involves making a sticker in thermal vinyl using the vinyl cutter, and the transfer to a fabric backpack using a heat press. The child will learn how to change a font in Inkscape and how to mirror the design so that it can be read on the fabric properly after ironing it.
