I will never touch the stuff again!
Yuk, I hate when that happens. I was looking at a site last night which might be useful to some of you they sell the most unusual threads and ribbons, just type in shibori dragon. Lovely fabrics as well although not so cheap as some sites. Gorgeous hand dyes batiks though.
Elle, I've ordered through Shibori Dragon before. They are great. I had to call them to change a fabric in my order and they were terrific. I'd order through them again.
