I would encourage you to gather together pre-loved textiles and garments that can be upcycled, rather than buying anything new. For example: old tees, sweaters, shirts, trousers, napkins, tablecloths, sheets, baby muslins... anything you can think of! Just probably not any fabric that has a heavy knit or weave to it, as that won't print as well.
I’d also go for natural fibres like linens, cottons, viscose as the inks I use will stay better on these.
If you don't have anything at home that you can use then I'd go to charity shops and do some digging. I'll provide some scrap fabric for practicing on too.
