Mine is a real Textaafoam evergreen. From the 1st launch it has been a well running quality in the Textaafoam collection, and it still is. This micro chenille quality has been woven on an air jet loom, piece dyed and laminated with a 160 gram fleece backing. This heavy backing creates an even more thick and chunky handfeel to this popular upholstery fabric. Mine is durable and easy to process on both fitted and loose fitting upholstery.
