Fabric Selection

Use most types of fabrics, including quilter's cottons, lightweight denims, linens, pin-wale corduroys, and other fabrics for the construction.
Avoid the use of stiff fabrics such as heavy denim or fabrics with a "high pile", such as upholstery fabrics. The heavy bulkiness of these fabrics can cause poblems with the tight turns in this small bag.
