Looking for this fabric......

Stiff fabric on Left, soft and limp on the Right.

I would like to find a source for making my own finch thistle socks. I think it is a polyester something. I have two different kinds. One is very stiff and rigid while those shown in the pictures feel like the mesh laundry bags but a finer weave. It has to hold the teeny tiny nyjer thistle seed. So if anyone knows, please point me in the right direction .
thanks and have a great Father's Day weekend. I am readying my 'Shiny Bubble' for her first trip away from home ~ the Fourth of July celebration. I have completed the slightly padded cornice boards above the windows. Now I can move on to the curtains.
Keep it real, Patsy

Patsy!!! I am too!!! The squirrels and the chipmunks destroyed mine, so I have no finches at the present. When you find out, let me know. I think there might be a mailing address to get more socks. I'll try to find it.
