Review on Cotton Piping Cord Yards Made by Kelsey Brown

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not the right size, untangling and tearing, but a good price if you need a large quantity.

It was too thick for my normal upholstery needs. I'm a beginner in upholstery and just figured it out. Noticed the normal size is smaller. Check with your teacher first or get a piece of old twine from a fabric store to get the right size. This material (any size) untangles and wears like crazy! Make as few cuts as possible and see how to solve the chafing problem in cord making. I'm trying cotton-poly blend corduroy, which is a bit stiffer and easier to work with. It's still wearing out maybe not that easy. If you don't plan on using much, you don't need that much.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
