Et Voila! Your very own oilcloth/raincoat fabric. Try experimenting with different coloured and effects plastics. Cut them into different shapes, you don't necessarily have cover the whole fabric. Have Fun!

  this is great! Thanks for the TUT. I was going to try the original way (with linseed oil), but it seems really long and complicated. Once the process is finished, is the fabric washable? Must it be hand-washed or can it be washed in the washing machine?

  Fantastic idea! I have some questions: Can it be washed? Laundry machine?

  GREAT IDEA. I see using this technique when making a purse out of fabric that would soil easily.
