    Hi Jennywren
    If it was something I was doing for myself I would use something like an old black men's dress shirt or something similar you want to pick something that has no stretch so not a polo or T-shirt have used shirts on things I have done and they have come out fine the other good option is felt from one of the hoppy stores.

    I would use felt most of the time for this sort of thing. As Sammy said, best if it has no/minimal stretch.

    But I think I will get some different material and experiment with it, as I have the felt it won't hurt to have a back up. Thanks again
