What fabrics work well with snappis?  I have heard flannel and fleece but am looking for more options as well.  Thanks.

Terry is a great one.  Lots of loops to hold onto!

What about t-shirt material?  I am going to make some dipes from recycled t-shirts but I am not sure if the snappi will tear up the fabric after a while.

Doesn't work well with t-shirt material, but you could always add patches of coordinating fleece/flannel/terry where you want the snappi to grab.

That's a good idea.

velour!  cotton or bamboo!  Also, i use it with flannel, but it seems to do better with cheap flannel...not quilters grade.  that stuff doesn't pill up well enough for it to grab.

Check it out, ya'll!
