I make up my own starch solution in a gallon jug. I dip my fabrics as they are usually a large size and this seems to work best for me. I wring them out once they are saturated, then hang them up on skirt hangers over the sink to catch excess starch. Also if one of my fabrics are going to bleed, they usually do it then so I can set the dye in another sink with Dawn dish soap, the blue one. Once the fabric is dry I take it to the ironing board and press away. Haven't yet but soon will install a large diameter dowel rod above my sink to put the hangers on so they don't fall off.
