Some time ago, I collected these serviettes and bought some "Napkin Podge" to try out this technique. I was really tickled by the serviettes I bought with blocks of chocolate on them and I envisaged making fabric that looked like blocks of chocolate. I tried it out yesterday and for a change the picture looks better than the actual product! I photographed this with maximum light as well as flash, and you can actually see the patterns, but in real life they are very, very dark and you can hardly see the patterns. So I guess they are meant to be podged to white fabric and I will try this next - I really *want* chocolate-printed fabric! Just imagine - I can send a piece of chocolate fabric through the mail, or paste it to a card, or make a chocolate cushion, or... a choccie blankie.. or... create a hundred different ways to sabotage any attempt to lose a bit of weight!
The podge gives the fabric a kind of rubbery texture, which I don't much like. Not sure how it holds up to washing.
