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...

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

I only use this on paper in a sketchbook. Not familiar with using on fabric.

I don't know a lot about treating fabric (to make softer?), but I used this to cover my dining chair cushions, and it's a very rough fabric with a canvas-y feel to it. I hope that makes sense. Probably not ideal for a blanket although the pattern and colors are really pretty in real life. Hope that helps!

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.

Possibly. It may bleed a little because the fabric is like a plastic type canvas. Good luck.

I just tried permanent marker on it and think that works. It has a fabric look to it but is some sort of non woven material with almost papery feel. It is not glossy.

Yes! Just be aware that the lines will be thicker and you'll either need to write bigger or not press as hard. But the color looks nice on a dark paper.

These markers were purchased for my son whose artistic endeavors right now is ink on paper. I don't believe he's done anything on fabric. So, I can't say for certain. I would recommend contacting the manufacturer. Perhaps they can specify as to how well they'll hold up on certain fabrics washed (or dry-cleaned) under certain circumstances and for how long. I can say that he has enjoyed these pens for his drawings.

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.

Not sure why everyone voted no to this. I used iron on material in this label maker to label all my baby's blankets for daycare and they've washed perfectly with no fading yet.

yes. i used this for my wedding for people to sign instead of a guest book. its about as thick as cardstock, but flexible. very strong.

Perhaps slightly thinner than that - it will crease easier than cereal box thickness would. I think it would work for your journal project, though it's not as durable as traditional cardstock would be.

Yes....but you will need to seal your fabric over after the image is printed as it will not hold! I covered mine with a gel medium and that worked, but an ink jet is definitely better!

I m not sure if the fabric will be good for that. It does look and feel very strong. But I would not order it from the seller, b/c they charges me shipping and handling for each yard of the fabric I ordered , so for one piece of 4 yard they charged me over $19 and still have not refunded me Money. I orded it in May. I called Amazon , they said they will contact the seller and have not heard back since then. So I would not recommend buying from the seller.

Sharpies aren't the best option for t-shirts because if you are trying to write small they just kind of spread out. I would suggest fabric markers for t-shirts just because they work best! Hope I answered your question!!

Hi - I've found this to be very versatile labels...but I've never tried them on fabric, although my guess is that they would work fine for this purpose.
