I have never heard of this fabric. Just curious, Jacqui, what are you making? Janice Subject: [lace-chat] Timtex?
Can one of the US arachnes tell me what Timtex is, please. I think it may be a thickish stiffening (like pelmet Vilene, here in the UK) as it is possible to machine stitch through it, but is making a base for something. Also, the materials call for a "silica filled sandbag" as a ready made/purchased item (would this be from a DIY store?), but with no size given. From the instructions it look as if it's about 5" x 2 1/2". Does anyone know if this is right. And, out of curiosity, what are these really made for. I'm sure there's not a market for pin cushion fillings in the States.
