Eva Hesse (1936–1970) was a groundbreaking German-American artist known for her innovative work in sculpture, drawing, and painting. A key figure in the post-minimalist movement, she experimented with unconventional materials like latex, fiberglass, and rope, pushing the boundaries of form and texture. Her work explored themes of imperfection, process, and the tension between fragility and strength, making her one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. Hesse studied at Yale and briefly worked at Oberlin, a period that shaped her artistic voice before her career was tragically cut short by illness at age 34. Despite her short life, her legacy endures, inspiring generations of artists with her fearless exploration of materiality and abstraction.

Each transfer cut-out is 4.25" by 5.5".

How to Use Your Visible Mending Transfers


Prep Your Fabric: Make sure your fabric is clean and dry before starting.

Choose Your Design: Pick one of the four designs from the set.

Apply the Transfer: Place the transfer design with the printed side facing the fabric. Gently press to activate the adhesive.

Stitch: Use a needle and thread to stitch along the design, following the printed lines. Feel free to add your own flair or skip areas you don't like.

Rinse and Reveal: Once your stitching is complete, rinse the fabric to remove the stabilizer. Your design will stay in place, and the stabilizer will wash away!
