    I'm wondering if any of the gocco savvy bees have ever worked with bookcloth. I can't figure out whether to use fabric ink or regular ink for paper. Does anyone have any idea?

    @plantains: We are using book cloth for our invites too :) Recently we went to the printers and he said he doesnt see a problem with the book cloth or see any reason that it wouldnt stick because the side he will be printing on is cotton based. HOWEVER, if you are using a printer (and not diy-ing the printing as well) there might be a problem with how the book cloth is curved.. the machine wont be able to pick it up or something. Hope this helped!

    If you can't find someone here, ask someone on etsy. But I remembe reading somewhere on the bee .. might have been a blogger bee, who used fabric ink on her napkins instead of regular ink. It might work the other way for regular ink instead of fabric ink: http://www.weddingbee.com/2008/04/16/a-new-skill/

    @MrsNeutrino:

    Thanks! I am actually using my gocco and I have some fabric ink, but it isn't Riso and I prefer the look of teh paper ink so wanted to see which to use. So confusing :(

    @bRooklynRocks:

    Yes oh, I saw that post! My concern is whether the ink for paper will be an issue with bookcloth or whether to just bite the bullet and use fabric ink. Oh well, I guess I will just stick with the fabric ink unless it looks bad, in which case i will go with teh paper stuff. Aaaaaagggh.
