lizzy, I really can't help with that.
The others will be along shortly and help, I'm sure.
I considered a thread like that, but thank goodness I didn't go with it, bc my fabric is not the one I thought I was ordering.
It's ok, and with 11 yards, I was not going to turn around and buy more, but it's a bit thinner than I would have like to work with for this.
tip: when ordering fabric...make sure if you want a certain designer's fabric, that his name is on it.
Mine has the same name as a Henry Glass fabric.
Boy, was I surprised when I opened the box! :shock:
(yes, I considered sending it back and such, but with so many things keeping me from getting started...)
