I can find it in a variety of colors at my local quilt shop: blue, pink, tan, white, and brown. I love stitching with it because it is thicker than cotton or muslin, and hides the floss and knots from underneath the fabric. However, because of that same thickness, it can be tricky to trace patterns onto, but it is possible! Sometimes I print two copies of a pattern: one to use for tracing, and the other to use as a reference to make sure I don't miss anything. Good luck!Shellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11439920987288102245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-392463928195967367.post-52528589409745187042009-10-20T21:12:44.853-07:002009-10-20T21:12:44.853-07:00Shelli, I love that last pillow and I noticed it h...Shelli, I love that last pillow and I noticed it has a different fabric than I've seen. Almost pre-quilted looking texture. What is that called and where can I get some?

Thanks for the idea. And I love all your embroidery patterns by the way. Want to buy them all, but I don't have time to make them right now. Glad I know where to come. <br />Thanks again. <br />HeatherSmall Fry and Co.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17900951755331368694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-392463928195967367.post-81357577890426148242009-08-12T09:59:22.936-07:002009-08-12T09:59:22.936-07:00Hey sister Christiansen!
