The unbleached birdseye for that batch was from a gal here on DS. I just received some more bleached from a fabric.com order (cuz I wanted it quickly and at the time I didn't get any response to my ISO). AND, the yahoo group Buy The Yard N More is finishing up a coop buy for some unbleached that I signed up for. There may still be some left...

I flat would work, but would probably have to modify the soaker pattern piece cuz it's long. Not sure how many pieces you could get out of a flat. I'm sure you could make it work!

I'll have to look at my local store! I've asked before once or twice, but they weren't sure what I was talking about. I suppose that was quite a while ago though...

Those are awesome!

Just a question. How do you attach ruffles without causing wicking problems?

I added a layer of PUL behind it. The extra piece just went from the entire top back to about an inch and a half past the last ruffle seam.

Seriously I would love to have this pattern & what stretchy polyester did you use for the tabs?
Is here another name for it besides stretchy polyester ?

Wanted to say that she are just spectacular and even though there were tons of pics I was so sad when I got to the end photo! Great great job!!
