there are different broadclothes on the market- there are cotton broadcloths, poly broadcloths, cotton/poly blend broadcloth, rayon broadcloth,
don't just (assume) every broadcloth is the same as one you saw once---there are lots of different fabric contents- weights- properties, weaves, thread counts...
don't just (turn your back) on a fabric that may be wonderful to use because you (heard once) it was too cheap, too thin, too-what ever---just like other fabrics- there are lots to choose from- some more expensive than others- some better quality than others- some made out of (different-stuff)
