Be careful mixing fabrics that are drastically different...differences in washing needs will most likely result in shreaded fabric ( I know someone that happened to!!).

If you want it to LAST and be easy to wash, use cotton. No messing around!!
Speaking of faux suede, I've heard that this fabric is excellent for raw edge applique...does not frey or ravel and easy to work with. I've not tried it but I have a collection of faux suede that I purchased from eBay off and on for a year or so.
