Gaberdine is perfect for the homeless quilts. Good wear and tear and has a
smooth finish - sheds a lot of dirt, hair, etc. Perfect. -- http://community.webshots.com/user/snigdibbly SNIGDIBBLY ~e~ " / \ http://members.ebay.com/aboutme/snigdibbly. http://www.ebaystores.com/snigdibbly...ox&refid=store "CNY/VAstitcher" wrote in message ...

I have some blouse fabric (I hate making blouses) that I can't use for quilting. If I could find someone to use them they could have them, then I'd have room for this "enlarged-as-much-as- it-is-ever-going-to-be" stash.

I think you're absolutely right. I've saved out two very unattractive
colors (don't know what I was thinking when I bought those two) that are not large enough for a suit and will use them for the quilts. I also discovered that some of the fabric I bought for suits isn't gabardine, but a bit lighter weight fabric which should be good for Larisa to wear year round.
