    It seems I read a while back where someone made their own spray sizing? Seems like it was how to make the spray like in the quilt shop stuff that smells nice. Can't think of what its called. Any help would be appreciated.

    I make my own starch if that's what your asking about

    Its 1-1-1

    1 cup of frebreeze (any scent but i love the Lavender)
    1 cup of Sta-flo concentrated starch
    1 cup of warm water

    It does flake so careful when using it on darker colored fabrics. But when i'm starching-cut-starch-sew I use this recipe.. and use a better quality like Mary Ellen's Best press for the finished top touches.. .

    When I typed in 'starch' in the search feature here these were 2 of the links I found.
