Calling on the great treasure trove of knowledge on RCTN
After trying linen in my first project, I found I liked the look/feel and have been using it in my projects. I have been purchasing from LNS. Then I needed more for some small projects and no LNS around so I went into a Walmart and picked up a packet of Wichelt 28 count ivory. The only brand they carried. I am using it but it is very stiff and unpleasant to handle.
The stuff I had previously used turns out to be Zweigart, and it has all been fairly soft.
Is this a brand difference or does Walmart order theirs already stiffened? I may quit buying fabric unless I can put my hands on it!
Thanks for any information Barbara T
