Ribbon

I'm getting ready to place my order soon and while I was searching I found Swiss Double Face Satin. So it's between that and the regular Offray Double Face Satin. Is there a difference - other than price?

Re: Ribbon

My friends aunt (a seamstress) told her that the Swiss is supposed to be the best of the best but it's typically used more for apparel and high end products.

I don't know if you'll notice a huge difference - ecept in the price? Maybe, if you have time, take a ride to fabric bonanza or Michaels and see if they have them!

Re: Ribbon

Thanks for the replies!!!

I found a website for the ribbon and it's a pretty good deal. The swiss satin seems to have a nicer shade of burgundy than the offray brand - so maybe I'll go with that. The price difference is steep but I only need so much so it won't be too bad. Nice to know it's the best of the best.
