Another dumb mistake!

I don't like Insulbrite. It's hard to cut and I don't like the feel of it. I use cotton batting layed with the silver heat resistant fabric when heat resistance is needed in something. I bought a bolt of the silver fabric a few years ago on clearance for $2 a yard and so glad I did. I see it on sale for $8.99 a yard in stores now. Never ever pass up a good clearance buy on specialty quilt items. LOL.

Interesting info. I just made a table runner and used a single layer of the Warm and Natural. I thought of using something else inside but this one is mainly decorative for the dining room table. Good info to know for when I make another one.

I used one layer of Insul-Bright, and nothing else. Must have been missing my head at the moment. I think a layer of flannel would be good to add and I have to get some neutral to keep on hand for this (for using the rest of the yard of Insul-Bright). It didn't occur to me to log on and look for instructions before making this table protector. Live and learn, I hope.
