They are wonderful. Just one question. How do the photo's stand up to laundering over a period of time? Has anyone had experience of any fading or damage? I would like to do one but I am bit concerned about the durabilty.

i only use june tailors fabric sheets. have never had any trouble with them. you have to wet them then heat dry them and iron to set the picture. i have even thrown some practice ones in the wash before without any problems. If ever needed to I would hand wash these and air dry just to make sure
