    Any feedback from someone who has spent time with Monolite? That material is springy, and doesn't pack very small. I'm curious how the cloud compares.

    Sew channel without hemming long edges?

    If most people don't trim selvedge, why hem the long sides? Any reason to other than esthetics? Or do most of you do it that way? It's another hard to search question as "hem" is too short to search.
