Hello Sheryll,

Thank you for contacting us.

Any kind of 100% cotton (quilting cotton) would work great! And while we don’t currently have a pattern for that, I was able to find this one for you:

We greatly appreciate your business!

Can you recommend a few good online companies. I have to drive a long way to the city for a store, so online is a better choice.

Hi Rosa,

Thank you for contacting us.

There is a search window on the site that you can use to find different videos. Type in buying a machine and you will find what you are looking for. Ashley Hough has some great information on the subject.

Hi,

Some cotton fabrics produce more lint than others. Higher quality fabrics will generally produce less lint. When it comes to casual pants, you can use a cotton fabric or a cotton blend fabric- something with some polyester for a bit of stretch.

Cheers,

Ashley

It’s been washed, dried and pressed, just ironing it my clothes are covered in lint. It’s a fleece feeling cotton. I was going to attempt pants. What fabric is best for pants? Casual pants
