My first foray with Oil cloth..

So, I don't think I've ever even touched Oil cloth (and I'm the the first to acknowledge that the feel of the fabric is just as important as how it looks) - but I think I'm about to take a leap of faith and order some online.

I love the way it looks on these chairs over at MADE (by Dana)

We have a bench seat on our new outdoor area, and I need to make a box cushion for it. I think this black and white pattern from Oil cloth Addict will be just perfect

My only concerns are how it will feel under backside - and whether it will fade badly under our relentlessly sunny Queensland sky?  But I think I'm going to take that leap of faith, and buy some.
