I got your book today and totally was absorbed in reading in the book. Thank you for sharing the experiences. I've been looking for books like yours for a long time. I am planning to print some pattern on a bumpy (think corrugated) thick cotton rug. Which ink would you recommended? The rug would be regularly washed and the ink should be non-toxic and not easy to flake (children in the house). Again, thanks so much for your "labor of love". I am so excited and can't wait to get started.
hi,i'm so glad to hear that you're enjoying the book so far. thank you!
any water-based fabric ink will be fine to use. i recommend Speedball brand. the ink will need to be heat-set to make it washable (either ironed or tossed in the dryer on high heat).
