    Red face PUL - need a favour

    I need a favour from one of you lovely ladies.

    I need a scrap piece of PUL fabric so that I can SHOW these darn idiotic stores in Cape Town what I am looking for. Everytime I go to a shop and ask for PUL I get Noboby-Home stares Then I explain that I'm looking for waterproof fabric and I get show the nicest PVC fabric that you make tablecloths from and when told that that is not what I'm looking for ... I get a "sorry can't help you then" You would think that with the economy being what it is, you will at least get some GD SERVICE - phew, rant over

    I even went to the outdoor place and ask them if they can help me (I thought that certian sleepingbag fabric or tent fabric might work) but again " Sorry ma'm, can't help you .. that fabric store is this and there" ARGGGGGGGG

    My AIO pattern from Canada has arrived and I'm BURNING to make my first lot of diapers .. but I need a waterproof fabric (wool is so not in my price-range atm )

    I will reimburse the postage, but if someone can just send me like a A5 square that would me much appreciated.

    TIA

    hiya
    from what i know, PUL isnt available from normal stores. you need to get it from online nappy fabric stores. but if you think you have a chance of getting it, im happy to send you some.
