it is beautiful as an embellishment on some clothing, totes, or christmas ornaments....imagine irradescent opaque angel wings (or butterflies) and these fibers are perfect for achieving that look 8) 8) 8)

Here's a detail of a tooth fairy postcard. Her hair is angelina, but the pictures don't do justice to the iridescence. It is a bit stiff, but great looking and fun to play with. The fibers almost look like very thin tinsel, and you need to protect from the iron. I used plain brown paper and it came out fine.

it adds texture and movement to fabric and comes in many different colors.
its mainly used by art quilters. i would never use it on a quilt that some one was going to sleep around in.
