I have used this idea for printing labels for several quilts, it works. It has to be an ink jet printer or it will wash out.

wow! excellent method. I will definitely be trying this. I hope my ink is the kind that sets.

If you take freezer paper make sure it is folded over your fabric a bit.
This helps running it through the printer. Also, printer ink is fine to use, but if you wash it numerous times it will fade.
I do custom machine embroidery labels if anyone wants to go theat route.

i used scotch tape to hold the fabric and it worked good, I have an upside down feed printer too

I have used the freezer paper method many times and there is several tricks to making sure it works in your ink jet printer. Every printer is different, and touchy. You have to experiment with your individual printer and see what works best for you. The ink isn't always perfect to stay permanent. My suggestion, after you have ironed it right after printing, soak it in some vinegar to make it permanent. Or, another idea, make yourself a bunch of labels and print them on the special treated fabric you can purchase at any of the JoAnn's or Hancock fabric stores. I think you can even get it at Office Maxx or such places. And as Karen (karenchi) said, she makes embroidered ones, & so do I. I can even make personalized ones on the specially treated fabric if anyone wants personalized ones made in fabric.
