Beware the Minkee Mates

Jan 27, 2008 1 Replies

Y'all might remember I was going to use Minkee for the backing for my mom's chemo cuddle quilt on the great advice I got here? Well, I found an online store with Minkee solids and what I *thought* was Minkee stripes, dots, etc. It turns out that Minkee Mates are NOT print Minkee fabrics- it's cotton yardage that color coordinates with the Minkee colors. So, I have to go find the real thing, the cuddly Minkee, and buy some of that for the backing. Darnnit- I didn't want 3.5 yards of blue and white striped cotton fabric..... I wanted snuggly Minkee for my mom

Well, I'll declare, Leslie. I don't guess I was even aware that there was such a thing. I'm told that the quilt shop over in Alabama has Minkee for $25 per yard *and* they have something awful like an about 10% sales tax there. Surely you can do better online. Good grief. Polly
