I had an email yesterday from the website: allfreesewing.com that they have texture magic on sale right now. Two different sizes of packages --one is 47/18 and is $10.19 --the other is larger and is sl more expensive. Just go to their "sewing store" and type in texture magic. Have fun with it. I think it is amazing stuff--be sure to follow directions exactly however.

Also, during a showing of America Sews or Quilts, someone was on demo ing the shrinking thread. She demoed on a center of a pillow. It looked rather interesting. Like something I might want to try someday. It's another on my (bucket) list. :-D

You will have close to the same effect.
