Best idea to iron it on after you have done the quilting but before you sew it together. They're still going strong even a couple of years on, but at the flap where you open it it is starting to peel off. I have also used it on one of the boys's matching pencil cases, again there is some peeling off but no major damage. I have handwashed one of the book bags several times with wool wash - not problem. In NZ I got it through Grandmother's Garden in Gordonton. She ordered it specially for me, not sure if they carry it regularly. It was not cheap, so I kept all the scraps, you can iron them with an overlap to make it fit. xoxoMonikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00903647147633857223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1303875332081634127.post-40070610711747654582012-03-20T08:55:20.735+11:002012-03-20T08:55:20.735+11:00What a great product ... the possibilities are end...What a great product ... the possibilities are endless ... shower caps?!!yardage girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10244858568306608757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1303875332081634127.post-73189164612817196422012-03-20T06:04:54.827+11:002012-03-20T06:04:54.827+11:00I heard, could be wrong haven't tested it out ...I heard, could be wrong haven't tested it out but will soon, that normal sticky plastic for covering books is good for making fabric vinyl...

My girl likes super girl-stereotype things, so no worry with her (pink, purple, glitter - ah huh!), but my boy is a bit more discerning. He'd love these marbles. I've been wanting to make them new lunch bags..... Ideas are brewing. I wonder if I could make it work on my own screen printed fabrics? Does it seem to work best on lighter cottons, or heavy fabrics ok too? <br /><br />I do hope the school buying department don't read your blog.
