DIY Laundry Detergent

After doing some researched, I decided to make my own laundry detergents.  A friend of mine gave me 2 Zote bar soaps, so figured I give it a try.  Since I don't need a big batch, I used the recipe from The Family Homestead.  For bigger batch The Duggars Laundry Recipe has the same ingredients, but different amounts.  So far, it seems like it is washing the clothes just as good as the store's detergents.  We have front loader washer, and no suds so far.
