I’ve had trouble finding cotton slips too, but discovered it isn’t very hard to make them using eyelet. Use french seams and leave enough wiggle room so it isn’t binding.

Wow, this really solves a problem I’ve had. I’ll be off shopping on Monday. I don’t think I would have ever thought of that. Thank you SO MUCH! I’ve got lots of resale shops around me, so I’m sure to find a few I can use.

The thin, gauzy cotton seems to me to move freely. I use thicker skirts for slips in the winter for warmth, too.

This sounds like a great idea. I’ve layered skirts in the winter for added warmth.
With very thin cotton fabrics, do you find that they tend to cling to each other, or do they move freely?
