    membrane15polytaffeta--is there an outside/inside?

    I am making a down quilt out of .9ozmembrane15polytaffeta---are both sides the same?(or does one side go toward the down?) I asked ripstopby te roll, but they are out of the office for the next week! Thanks!
    FYI: If you want to know what type a certain bear is, sneak up behind it and kick it. Then,
    run like crazy and climb up a tree. If the bear climbs the tree and eats you, it's a black
    bear. If the bear just pushes the tree over and eats you, it's a grizzly bear : )


    Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me, either, just leave me alone.

    I slipped away from the vaca. One side should be a bit shinier than the other, although it can be a bit tough to tell the difference.

    Official recommendation is to put the shinier side in, but even if you can't tell which is which, there is little difference in performance regardless of which side goes in because of the taffeta weave and high thread count.

    If you need anything else, just let me know.

    Thanks for the answer! (the two sides look the same to me!) Enjoy your vacation!
