A source we've found in Adelaide is the underfelt for underneath the cotton cover of an ironing board - I know, some of you don't iron anymore...........................
Hi Shirley:
Oh, we iron - but here in Canada they put a strange yellow synthetic foam under the ironing board cover. In the old days, before strange yellow synthetic foams were invented, my Mom had an underlayer of thick cotton batting, but I've never seen wool. It must be an Aussie thing (maybe you have more cheap wool than cheap cotton batting?)
I have a pillow made with saddle felt and it is one of my favourites. I have no problems with it, but some people on this list have cautioned that when they made pillows with saddle felt, some of the felt fibres would creep up through the cover and be worked into their lace. So they recommended a couple of thin cotton cover layers before the final cover.
