Congratulations. What a good tip. Can you iron the fabric once the gelatine in on the fabric?

Yes you can as long as the iron is dry

Lena, you deserve the recognition! You are such an integral part here on PR, with your posts, and your information is always spot on, so it's no wonder Threads has snapped you up.

Congrats! And it's a great technique. Thanks! One of the photos reminded me--my grandmother used to feed her indoor plants with gelatine water.
