visit Dharma Trading Company...they are a dye company that carries most of the supplies needed including fabric paints, markers, inks, batiking supplies, and tons of free instruction, information, hints, tips and help...I've used inks and fabric markers very successfully with stamping blocks in the past...they do not seem to change the 'body' of the fabric like some paints do...but many good fabric paints really don't change it that much & once the item is washed (if it's going to be) the fabric softens back up-
