Can you use the noodle just as it is... or does it have to be wrapped in fabric?

I am sure you could use the noodle "as-is". I make mine to be of a GIFTY nature..so they get wrapped in pretty fabric and made to look FUN and useful!

I originally bought the noodles to put on my chain link fence. Hubby cut a slice out of them about 1/4" wide and you put the noodle over the top of the chain link so you can drape quilts on the fence to dry, or air out!
