used to do quite a bit of fabric painting & I think I mixed 1/2 paint
& 1/2 textile medium (maybe not quite that much textile medium) but

painted were not real stiff & stood up to many washings for many
years. The sweatshirts I painted for my mother even went through the
laundry at the nursing home & still looked good. Textile medium can be
bought wherever craft paint is sold & is inexpensive.
