Just a quick little vid to inspire some folk out there who might like to play around with this fabric stuff. All designs were made using 3DSMAX and the materials used were tulle fabric and Poly-cotton and some black fabric that I don't even know. Basically the more porous it is the easier it will be to work. To get it to melt into the fabric you simply need to reduce the initial layer amount, but be warned about blocking your nozzle if you push too hard into the fabric as filament can't flow if its too hard up against the material. The filament I used that produced these was Colourfabb filament, I used a few others such as glow in the dark which printed real nice, but some cheap other ones did not look so good and weighed less than the same amount of similar Colourfabb filament. So cheap filament in my opinion can be determined by its weight compared to a similar competitor ,which will be lighter. I could be wrong, but in my experience if you have two things with similar properties, the heavier one is more expensive/better.
