You take a small piece and burn it. If it all turns to ash it's cotton. If there is some twisted hard pieces left there's polyester or some kind of non-cotton material in it. I've tested material I thought was for certain cotton...and it wasn't.

pretty find!

I want to go live by you :mrgreen: Ours never have anything like that :cry:

You are so lucky! I keep hitting the thrift stores in the different towns I visit weekly to see clients, and they just don't seem to have fabric. Did get a 1/2 gallon plastic bag of nice sized moda fabric scraps for 50 cents, but then went and spend $$$ on coordinating fabrics so I would have enough to make something....I think I defeated the savings... :shock:

I used to be able to find tons of fabric but the other quilter and even the omish discovered my secret. So now I am finding less and less but I will still keep looking.

Scrappy quilt here she comes.

You did great! I never see fabric in Thrift Shops here. Never. I'm happy for you. Keep on shopping girl! Get it ever chance you can.
