I love this idea, Have bought the paper and soda ash from Coles supermarket in Tamworth. I see the black ink design, have you tried with colours and how did it go? hugs Helen

Helen.
look in the projects and you will find a small quilt that was printed out and then sewn the colours are nice and clean. so no problem with it. just make sure you have at least one inch header before the fabric and that NO LOOSE THREADS ARE HANGING TO CATCH THE ROLLERS. I USED A ROLLER BLADE TO MAKE A CLEAN CUT EDGE.
any problems or if you need more help then PM me

Success!Glad to see it works;thanks for the pics and info.

Very interesting.

Must try this. I already have the washing soda as I plan to make laundry soap.
