My mother mentioned faux chenille to me a long while back-- over a year ago, probably. I'm interested, now, too-- probably because of my "experience" (oh, yeah, I'm so experienced! (g)) with rag quilting. (Rag quilting and making faux chenille aren't the same thing, but I think it's fair to say that they're related...) A quick search revealed at least a few good links with basic information. I don't know when I'll ever get around to trying it, but here are a few links to refer to, somewhere down the road:
- "A Primer for Constructing Faux Chenille" (on Nannette Holmberg's site)
- "Creating GREAT Slash-Fabrics", by McKenna Linn
- "Faux Chenille", by Sue Bleiweiss
- "Faux Chenille Purse Tutorial", by "Butterflyspain"
