Question fabric

I am not sure this is the correct forum but I was wondering what type of ink you can use on fabric so that it shows up well. My daughter is working on VBS for her church. They have lanyards they want to stamp on but don't know what kind of ink. Is Fabrico right?

Craft (pigment) inks work very well on fabric. You just need to heat set it once its dry. I usually heat set with a medium hot iron on a terry towel over the inked fabric.

Palette inks work well on fabric- just need to be heat set.

I've heard others use SU! inks with some success, but you'd probably want to try it out first.

You can use any paints that you'd buy at a craft store (like Delta brand), but there is a medium that you have to add to them that makes them fabric-set. I think they sell it right next to the paints in most stores. hth!
