Working on a project and my mind is drawing a blank….
I think it's coated on the outside for Nylon oxford but I can't remember for sure and I have 20 yards to sew… The longest french fell seam I will make is 17' so I want to make sure I put the correct side on the top!
Thanks

When I have worked with a coated nylon packcloth, I put the coated side in, and the more finished looking side on the outside. Works fine. Good luck!
