My friend, Lisa Owens shared a wonderful recipe for homemade laundry detergent found here:

This past week, our 14 year old helped make the detergent. I have been making for the past 3 years and this is only the 6th time I've made. It costs about $22 for a batch, so it is an economical and environmentally friendly way to clean our clothing.
Here are some photos from the making:
