    Here in Delaware where a lot of chemists live, we were told if you use freezer paper to make a quilt, the chemical will never come out of the fabric. Just a caution for those of you who use it, especially in appliqué. I do not remember if it is flammable or not. Someone could check with the local fire department and see what they say.

    Now what are your thoughts. How do we make them fire proof and boilerble?
    Nothing else in the room is fire proof. Why does a quilt from an interested friend have to be fireproof?
