Wow, did I learn something today. Am recovering a tabletop ironing board for a friend from work who does not have money to buy a new one. I printed out a tutorial on how to do it and they called for insulbright to use if you are using a cotton fabric for the top piece. Figured I would stop by after work and buy some. Well, at lunch, I decided to go to JoAnn's website to see how much it costs---1 yard 22" wide=$8.00 Ok, so with 40 percent off coupon, it would be $4.80 not bad. Then I thought of Hobby Lobby because it is closer---looked up their website---same width, same 1 yard=$2.99 a yard. Called both stores and the prices above are exactly what they charge. Guess you know where I went to buy it??!! Thought I would pass it on since a lot of you have been making pot holders, oven mitts and hot pads lately. Funny thing is that last time I bought it, was 1-1/2 years ago to make OSU candle matts for my daughters reception at her wedding and it was only $5.99 per year at JoAnn's
