so I tested it of course on a scrap of the background fabric &#8211; set with the iron, and it is really permanent. \u00a0I also bought a couple of cheap paint brushes and cut the ends off to use to make round dots&#8230;.. and I especially like the fine ones on the RHS. \u00a0 \u00a0Fiddling with samples always suggests more than one idea, and I like the gold brush strokes against the black &#8211;
