Hey all!

Yesterday I went on a hunt for materials for liners and hedgie bags etc (yeah, I am going to have to buy a new dresser just to hold all these liners and stuff I think!)

I found a shop that was selling fleece for 5 euros / meter (bonus!) and I searched all over for flannel material and ended up paying (OUCH) 32 euros for 2 meters. Day-um! It was too cute to pass up though.

Anyhow, one thing I did see a fair bit of (and with the cutest patterns) was velour (or what was marked as velour here)

I haven't seen anyone writing about this kind of fabric, usually just flannel / vellux (which I can't find here for the life of me) / fleece / cotton.

Would it be alright to use velour? (or is it VALour? cripes, I can't spell!)

Velour is ok to use but it must me hemmed as in no exposed seams. Velour isn't generally used over here as it is considerably higher priced than fleece.
