Then much later when I did REAL quilts the thought to use sheets never entered my mind. Just the other day for some reason this question came to my mind. So why not use sheets for quilt backs? Love to hear your opinions.
Actually, I think what brought this to my mind was that I met someone the other day with a finished quilt and she had found the perfect color yellow sheet for the back of her quilt in a thrift shop!
