I, too, was frightened by the thought of printing on faric. I bought 2 sets of the fabric on paper & put it away.
Then last week I needed a calligrapher to write on the almost beige that made up the sashing.
Well, there wasn't a single one in the house/neighborhood/or town. So I found a font & typed up the captions & ran the program & viola! - I had labels. I had to iron wonder-under light to the back.
A piece of cake!
Enjoy!
