I am disappointed that more info was not given. I would like to know what fabric works best?? Does the fabric need any prep?? Does it need to be set and how??Any special instructions for using paper??

Hi there, I am sorry you were disappointed, I will see if I can answer your questions. I have used polycotton here, so it doesn't need to be natural fibres and no preparation was needed, it was just ironed. The paper has no different instructions, just use it as it is. I hope this was more helpful than the video

I would think so, you will just have to have a go and see what does and doesn't work
