they are the same in thickness.. the only difference is the color of the stripe.

that pillow stripe should work just fine. All a little more lube to it when you set the ball. The only way it would not work that I can see is if you use an oversized ball.

Default RE: blue or red

A couple months back I took my calipers to the fabric section & measured the ticking. All three colors (they had a copper-colored stripe version as well) measured .016"-.018" depending on whether I did the edges or the middle.

It was great fun to watch the ladies' expressions when I brought out the calipers & started measuring.
