Do you remember how irresistible it was to pet soft fuzzy caterpillars when you were a child? That is the fabric that Airkiss produces. The structure of Airkiss has become one of my favorite configurations ever for strength, comfort, durability, and ability to show off all stitch patterns in an interesting way. The colors are very “fashion” and should satisfy a wide range of personal preferences. I would make ANY project from Airkiss -- the hard thing is to decide which one to do first!
