The rickrack that I can get locally is Wrights. It is very stiff and making those rickrack flowers I find is very hard to do. I have washed it, ironed it. Where is another source to buy some and is it as stiff?

Try this, I have been meaning to order from her. It says the rick rack is 100% cotton. I would guess that would be much easier to work with.

I finally ordered a small rickrack flower kit from karimeaway. The rickrack is fabulous to work with! I didn't find the flowers difficult to make at all. I did find them a bit boring to make though. I figuere I'll do a few at a time till I have enough to make some absolutely fabulous dress with them. With that said, I highly recommend the 100% cotton rickrack from karimeaway.
