    Fascinating and very helpful. What are your thoughts about using on a bowl cozy that would be in the microwave 2-3 minutes? Do you think the laminate would melt or catch fire? I'm wanting to label items that are NOT microwave safe because they contain Insulbrite. I think a label from the June Tailor product will be ideal. Thanks again! I'll use your affiliate link to purchase.

    @@JanHowell My thoughts, too. I've been experimenting with applying clear contact paper (Dollar Tree) to fabric with my laminator. The contact paper is thinner than actual laminating plastic. Thinking about printing directly on fabric and putting contact paper on both sides. I'll give it a try soon - sew with it, wash/dry, and let you know. My order of June Tailor paper will be here in a couple of days. Had no idea you could put it on ribbon. You shared some terrific information. Have a good day.

    I saw a quilter that had what I thought was a label in the center of her quilt back. I messaged her on the how to but never heard. I thought it was a great idea to be able to do that on a few quilts. Do you think she might have used an ink transfer? It was not embroidered. Thanks
