I was wondering if I can mix a 100% cotton with a kind of polyester fabric. It looks like cotton but I think it is a mixture. I am hoping some of the great people here will answer my question.
Thank-you for any help given.

From what I have read I think that you can...

You can do anything you want. But I don't mix fabrics out of preference and I prefer all cotton quilts.

Why so many repeats of post??

Yes. If the fabric can be washed, and treated the way the finished quilt will be treated, then yes.

I think the site is having issues:

No quilt police here, you can do whatever you want, but I would suggest washing fabrics first, just so you don't have some odd shrinking when its complete.

The main problem is that 100% cotton will shrink and the polyester won't. So be sure to prewash your cotton fabric.
