I bought some a couple of years ago to use as backings for children's quilts... have not used it yet.. it is heavier.. more like the weight of flannel. Each time I go back I look and have not seen it there any more... I have never seen threads... I got this in the kids section.. So it was kids related... It was on sale 3 meters for 5.99. So I feel like I got a great deal. One was a Christmas pattern I am sure that I will find a use for that!!!
