    Re: dear vasthraa

    Hi julieramesh
    i saw ur threads all.. r u using chappa method for tracing?

    Yes

    i think u cant get kerosene there.. then what liquid u r using for chaapa? pls let me know

    We get it plenty here. One can use thinner as Nandu suggested. You can also use petrol but the prob is, it ll evaporate very fast n the mix ll bcom too thick. One can use a tracing paper with ease.

    Re: alternative for kerosene

    Hi Sharadau
    I am sorry .Sewing machine oil stains the cloth.When we oil the machine we have to stitch a few lines on waste cloth and stitch new fabric.So imagine what happens when we use it for transfering designs!
