Synthetic fabrics like polyester or nylon, plus fabrics with metallic detail, are not suitable for this project due to the fire\/melting risk when used in the microwave.

Fabric: <\/strong>If you\u2019re using a fabric for this project that\u2019s different than our Petal Signature Cotton\u00ae<\/sup><\/a>, use an all-cotton fabric.

Thread: <\/strong>Use cotton thread. Do not polyester, synthetic or metallic thread.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n \n
