    Thank you very much. I will order Ivory then.
    I did not even consider muslin. I ordered some half yards to fill the flat rate envelope and to get to know that fabric, but I did not get a real good one so far. I use it to practise FMQ.
    What muslim do you use?

    The JoAnn's here has Kona Muslin that is very nice! I love it. But to go with 30's prints I prefer Kona Snow. It is a white but not a blaring white white. It is great to work with.

    Thanks a lot.
    At Joannes I saw one that said 200 count. What does that exactly mean and is it a good number? I know its something with threads from this board, but most muslins do not come with this number.
