DUH!

Once again, I had neglected to check the fibre composition of cloth. I guess it happens to everyone. I bought broadcloth with some thought that it would be 100% cotton. Well DUH - after waxing and dyeing, I noticed that it was so much lighter than my 100% cotton sateen cotton cloth. After researching online I found out that the broadcloth that I bought was 65% polyester and 35% cotton. DUH DUH DUH! Another lesson to always check fiber content before buying.
