I am *not* pretending to be an expert on this... lol... but I did a little homework on this subject a few months ago while I was writing a pattern for a sewing machine needle wallet.

I used white cotton that was adhered onto Reynold's brand freezer paper - and then threw that through my Canon ink jet printer. It was *amazing*.

I did a test wash on one scrap - and the ink held up just fine... so I *didn't* bother to go get the ink set products that are available on Amazon. Keep in mind, this was for a sewing machine needle wallet - so it's not the kind of object that is going to be laundered like a quilt would be expected to be. Also... in the name of keeping things simple when doing a pattern, I didn't want to put people through going and getting those products if it wasn't necessary.

For your project, though, I would probably want to try the stuff. They're made by a company called Jenkins and there is a Bubble Jet Set and a Bubble Jet Rinse.

Hope this helps...
