Thanks!
Hi.. and i do believe you are referring to my swap...
Ive been hosting monthly swaps for over a year now and I'm tweaking things here and there to make the swaps move smoothly... In all of my swaps it is required that all participants submit 100% cotton fabrics, however in hosting these wonderful swaps some members have 'accidentally' sent in blends.... SO, to make my life easier I request that the selvage is attached so i can surf the web and confirm, versus doing the burn test on 100 different fabrics..(unless the selvage says 100% cotton then, whoo hoo! no further action required for verification!! )
......ever burn something? the smell lingers...
