I found a method to make your pictures much more permanent. Print your picture on fresh washed, no fabric softener, fabric. I buy Alene's "OK To Wash It" and spread a thin, even coat of it on my Teflon pressing sheet, using the edge of a business card then carefully press the picture side of the fabric to it. Smooth gently. Allow to dry completely. Pull the fabric off of the Teflon sheet.Iron it on cotton setting and you have a picture that will survive the occasional washing. Wash your Teflon sheet in the sink with dish soap. Works for me.
