I wouldn't think the melting in a fire would be an issue as it would be inside the quilt, and the quilt would have to burn first before the fire got to the foundation fabric. What are your opinions on this, foundation piecers? I haven't done any yet but do hope to try it this year.
I would think it would be fine and a great way to use up something that would just go to the landfill. :)
