Hi everyone
I bought a draft stopper from a local shop  but it does not  seem to block the cold air very well. Has anyone found a good quality one that actually works? Any tips or recommendations would be really helpful.

I made my draft stopper from some remnant fabric that I had.

In a pinch I have used old towels.

Here are a coupe of thread that might help:
