I think that you might find diluted white glue will work or just a base coat 
of any latex paint.

I'm looking to make some painted flat fabric pieces. I'm wondering what I 
can use to prime them so the paint will adhere well and they won't fray. I'm 
pretty sure "Sculpt or Coat" would work well, but it's a little pricey and 
I'd rather use something I can walk into an art shop and buy than something 
I need to have shipped. The final pieces should be able to roll up for 
storage and stand up to seasonal temperature changes being lugged around in 
a trailer. I'm afraid that gesso might crack in the cold or from being 
rolled and unrolled. Any recommendations?
