I have colored on fabric and set with iron, but unfamiliar with fabric medium. Where do you purchase it?

This one is 6.5 x 9 inches. I have made coaster sized ones also witch is around 5 inches. Here is a picture of my first one...the coaster sized one. The pattern came from a stencil I got on sale from Hobby Lobby (5 cents). Just colored it in, applied the fabric medium, put some batting and quilted. I used embroidery floss to backstitch/outline it instead of the pigma pens.

I purchased the fabric medium (dermacoat I think it was called) at Hobby Lobby. A bottle was around 8 oz but it only cost around $5. I'm sure that other places would have it also and check for 40% coupons or such. Like I said, you use very little so it goes a long way.

Thanks everybody for the comments. It always makes me feel good to know that others think what I make is cute, etc. Hope it also inspires some of you to try it. It sounds like it might have done that also.

What is the purpose of putting a "fabric medium" over it? What happens if one doesn't use a fabric medium? AND what else is it good for or used for/with? Thanks--that's a lot of questions!
