This is a fabric which can be used as Tyvek in that it may be coloured with any medium before or after heating. The fabric is easily stitched into and used exactly as you would use a woven fabric. Because of the shrinkage when using a heat gun, beads and three dimensional objects can be made by wrapping a strip around a toothpick and sealing with a heat gun.
