Last one, they are pretty much the same with a few tweaks!!

In a clean large jug, mix:

4 Cups of water
2 Cups of liquid
starch
4 ounces of Vodka
10 drops of essential oil fragrance

Many
quilters have questioned me about the Vodka. As an alcohol, it acts as a natural
preservative, but in addition to that, it will chemically mix with BOTH the
water and the oil of the scent to emulsify them together. I keep my jug right on
the cellar stairs and it keeps for a year that I know of, I hafta make more
after that because I use it up. I fill my little spray bottle often and always
shake it before using because the starch settles.
I bought the liquid starch
at my grocery store and it cost $3 in March of 2010 and I still have almost half
a jug.
