I'm looking for a blanket for people to sign. Would this fabric be suitable for fabric pens?

I'd say no, although I've never used a fabric pen. If they are like markers....my thought would be not to try it. The writing might smear. Too nice a blanket to get ruined. Maybe someone else, familiar with fabric pens, will advise you correctly.

Thanks for your question. The best blanket to have signed is the Vellux Original Blanket. The ink won't set well on the fleece blanket. Vellux Original Full/Quteen Blanket, Wedgewood Blue

Not at all!!! Look for something of plain weave or cotton like muslim. Good luck!

Maybe if you used a sharpie? It is fleece...kind of like the inside of a sweatshirt...

I'm nor sure. I figured it would work I was also considering textile paint and stenciling. tI haven't tried anything with mine yet. Being 100 percent good quality canvas they should be ultimately paintable and transfers. As canvas I would imagine that embroidery type art would work too.

No, you can use American Craft Slick Writers, but only the fine and medium point, the wide are too short. With fabric you have to use heat and bond.

I used the Mod Podge as a top coat and to adhere other papers to watercolor paper. It is extremely shiny and it is possible to build up quite a thick layer of it. Mod Podge remains flexible enough to bend on paper without cracking when applied in one or two layers. It does stiffen the paper somewhat.Since I didn't use it on fabric, I'm not sure how much it would stiffen it, but I think it would stiffen it quite a lot. I'd use an acrylic made for fabric if you want your fabric to feel soft to the touch. Don't know if this is what you had in mind. Hope it helps.

Might be, it's soft enough but not very warm though. I use it as a table cloth. And the threads on the edges are easy to become loose.

I don't think so. I think This kind of pen/marker is not suitable for fabrics ( t-shirts or other Stuff)

I used the brand of ink included with the pen and Southworth 24lb parchment paper. I believe that will work. I discovered that some pens like this one acted "weird" on paper that was not completely "smooth". It was almost as if the ink had trouble flowing on paper with microscopic ridges.

Fabric pens worked well for us. We also tried cutting out some felt stick ons that the kids could use to personalize, but these did not stick too well (at least not for too long)!

No, it would not be too thick. In fact it would be ideal for such an application. The paper is thick enough and it is perfectly opaque so that the colors, etc. willnot bleed through. I use it to make greeting cards and it is MARVELOUS for that application as well.

I found an article that might explain your question. Follow this site on the web. http://www.flowapowaart.com/2013/11/derwent-inktense-on-fabric.htmlGood Luck

Yes! I use EQ Printables, which has several choices of fabrics. My favorite is their Premium Cotton Satin Inkjet Fabric Sheets. Six sheets per package, 8.5" x 11". Printing with the R3000, the colors are bright and beautiful . . . and I've had no problems with fading (but I don't tend to wash these items). Check out www.electricquilt.com

Depends on the type of fabric to which you are referring it should work fine. Works fine with cotton but it depends on what you are trying to do.

I use the fabric for the interior of presentation cases and is very nice for this but I don't think it would be good for curtains.

Unfortunately not. The fabric is too thin and shreds when cut. You should use a more sturdy(heavier) fabric for gift tags. Hope this helps in your decision making.

I used this to make a fleece blanket, but it does have some stretch to it. The material is very similar to that of my fleece pajama pants so I would think that is is suitable to use for lounge wear. I hope this helps!

It should. I used it for wedding invitations for a coworker and it worked great. At first I was worried the ink wouldn't stick or that it would jam going through my printer since it is so thick but they turned out great! Everyone thought they were done professionally. No smudges or anything.
