I just tried it out in a table runner, but I'm not finished. I believe you need to quilt with it, because the stabilizer washes out. If you never plan to wash the item (wallhanging?) I suppose that is okay, but I would expect to wash everything, so I'm quilting anyway.
So far I like it, and it's just the right thickness for bags, wallhangings and table items.
And yes, it is partly Bamboo.
