today, my monday craft girls and myself ventured out to Ikea to buy some material. As you know i have an issue with buying material from the regular material shops, as any material that i like usually costs close to $30 a metre. Ikea, between $5 -$10 metre, and its super wide.
It was good fun, and the boys had a great time, andwere very well behaved, well as well behaved as two small kids can be in Ikea.
I trek out to IKEA purely to look at the fabric. I went last week though and I swear they have changed the composition of their fabric. It used to be really stiff, rough cotton (and I loved the feel of it), but now it feels shinier and thinner. They say it is still cotton and I really hope it is...
ReplyDeletethere were two types...the thick, stiff and rough stuff, then there was the much thinner cotton stuff. the rough stuff definently was not shiny.... am making a bag, and it quite happily stands up by itself with no interfacing..
