I have had trouble finding the cotton clothesline called for in the bowl patterns...someone said Walmart but my local store doesn't carry it. I expect it to be rather costly at specialty shops.
It would hold up well as long as you used GOOD fabric..nothing thin like the walmart stuff. and I think cotton clothesline would hold up much better than regular cotton cording...though cotton cording is put on sofa edges..so who knows...
My Wm also does not have cotton clothesline. In fact I could only find online at Lehmans...or I have to order it wholesale and end up with 12 of them...so still thinking on that one!
