Vodka fabric sizing recipe
Cheap vodka is always suggested for this. This works because it is assumed vodka is made from potatoes which is a starch. However not all vodka is made from potatoes. I bought some made from grain. Do you think it makes a difference if made from grain vs potatoes?

I guess I am one who likes to play it "safe" ... and I go only with only the commercial products, meant for fabric use.

Scent for some ... but are there other ingredients?

All the formulae I read show only vodka and water and scent if wanted. I assume someone had it analyzed. The amounts differ a bit. I may have to invest in potato vodka since QuilE tossed out the challenge
