Alternative Textiles - date changed

Do you use something besides fabric in place of fabric?

Let me explain. Have you seen the Koolaid Jammers packages made into bags? They are not fabric but they are sewn together as if they were fabric. I have named these alternative textiles.

I am sure that there are lots of other things out there that would fit into this catagory. Many consumer items are packaged in heavy plastic or laminated paper. What can we use??? What posibilities lie in shipping cartons or construction materials?

Using our alternitive textiles, we will each make something for our partners. We can try to tailor this to our partners profile but this is not a requirement for this swap.

Anyone with a rating of 4.5 or better and newbies with a completed profile are welcome to join.

This swap be international so that we can see alternitive textiles from around the globe.

Please leave a comment if I need to clarify anything.
