    Canvas interfacing

    Does anyone know where I can purchase Taylor's Pride in the UK to use as interfacing or if this is not available in the UK then an alternative product?

    *sigh* I think Tailor's Pride is simply not made any more. I haven't found it in the US in many years, but maybe someone can correct me on that.

    I've been using the following for quite a number of years. It's great interfacing, and, if you are not in the US, you might be able to Google the details and find it in the UK:

    International shipping isn't cheap, but they will ship it from Kansas.

    If you're going to ship from the US, you might as well order from B Black (link in my first post above) - it's a LOT less expensive (it's 72" wide!!!). And I actually like it better than the old Tailor's Pride.

    But is there any suppliers of interfacing in the UK? What do British kilt makers use?

    I'm sure there must be, but I don't have any knowledge of it myself. UK kiltmakers - can you help?
