I know what I've been meaning to ask, does anyone know where I can buy Doctors Flannel in this country? Or just some flannel come to think of it.

I cant seem to find any.

If I'd heard of it I'd help!!!

Is it a surgical thing, I know a woman who works in a private surgery who could probably tell me where to get surgical things.

I've googled. There are a few fabric shops who do it for making blankets. Some health places that sell it for making poultices. I'll investigate further. . .

Ooh thanks.

You know the blog Ric Rac, well she makes her dolls from that fabric and I've been searching for some softer fabric for a while and it wasnt until I read her listings on Etsy that I fund out what she made them from.

It seems to be more popular in the US than over here.

is it stockingette? that's like a flesh peach coloured tshirt fabric?

i too have a misarable face - in fact my mother has been telling me for years to stop frowning or i'll get frown lines {i have now they're horrendous - i need botox!} my answer has always been to her "this is how my face is leave me alone".

Vintage - I have emailed you.

ditto!!!

No its like those sheets you can get for your bed.
Thicker and a bit softer and fluffier than tshirt jersey stuff.

All of the sites I've looked at are in Australia or USA .

I want some!

Nbg - Perhaps you could use a flanelette sheet. I know this would be cotton not wool like RicRac but as she's from Oz maybe it's just not something we have here

Yes I was thinking that Dizzy.

I may have an old sheet I can have a practice on.

Hi everyone... just swaning in for a moment before I make tea and watch some sort of tat with DH... not done any crafting today, the last thing I made was the pendant that I gave to GM on monday... I wish I had bought more of the focal beads... as I was quite pleased with the result and it would look fab mixed with some amethyst that I have..

have a nice evening ladies!

oh NBG-- I made some chocolate chip/cunk muffins the other day will blog the recipe tommorow.. they turned out great.

All I've done today - well apart from making a taggie - is have a go at making a http://www.flickr.com/photos/25168387@N03/2588316162/ Wobbly Log Cabin House
