New wadding for small quilts


Perfect for small quilts: Pellon's Thermolam TP970 - a high quality, very even & consistent needled polyester wadding with scrim.
Great for detail work.
Not cheap at £4/yd for 45" wide but you shouldn't be using a lot and the quality of the wadding really does mattter the smaller you get!
Like to know how good it is? Some members have already been back 2 or 3 times for it and we've only been selling it a couple of weeks!
