VIDEO TUTORIAL - How to Use a Clover Quick Yo Yo Maker This is an absolute must-read for anyone embarking on bag-making! ALWAYS use interfacing on any bag piece where the pattern reads "cut [specified number] i/f". Interfacing creates structure if it is used on the body of the bag - but is entirely optional here, and using it depends on the weight of the fabric and the finished look that you require. By fusing interfacing to every piece of the outside of the bag you'll add a lot more structure and "OOMPH" to the fabric. You can interface the lining if you want a stiff lining, but it shouldn't be the main support in the bag. It's important to remember that by adding an extra layer of interfacing to a bag piece, you are also increasing the bulk of the fabric.

The sheep’s fleece is removed once a year by power-operated clippers. The soiled wool at the edges is removed before the fleeces are graded and baled. The price of raw wool is influenced by fineness and length. This is representative of the yarn into which it can be spun. Newly removed wool is known as raw wool and contains impurities such as sand, dirt, grease and dried sweat. Long wool fibres will be combed and made into worsteds, while short wools are described as carding, or clothing wools. When the wool arrives at the mill it is dirty and contain many impurities that must be removed before processing. The chemical composition of wool: The protein of the wool fibre is keratin (Azoulay, 2006:26), which contains carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, but in addition wool also contains sulphur. The physical structure of wool: lustre Strength:

belula Bonding Techniques Used in Making Elastic Nonwoven Composites Introduction This report encompasses some of the most interesting processes of forming composite elastic nonwoven webs. Elasticity is a desired property in nonwoven webs to be used in bandages, diapers for a tight yet comfortable fit, garment linings for a body-hugging fit, bandages that should be stretchable to cover the wound well and several other applications where it may be needed 1).
