I have never purchased a Purple Thang but I have friends that swear by them. You should enjoy it.
Marcia - I wasn't given any washing instructions with the SA fabrics, however many thanks for the nod regarding the fabric bleeding. :wink:
I shall keep that in mind & yes it's extremely stiff they had a sample of the fabric which they had pre washed several times as you said it feels so fine & silky soft. :D
