Hair interfacing (3 types), linen, linen blends, shot cottons/rayons/linen/blends, silk silk blends, synthetic paper, hand-dyed hemp burlap, Oakshott brand shot cottons, rayons, rayon blends, tulle, acetate and other synthetics, woven, print and specialty cottons, Quilters' Dream/request loft batting
Techniques
