I use them all the time for tie quilts--and prefer good USED sheets I usually get for $1 or $2--yes they ARE tough to quilt through--which is why I tie them! Usually use 100% cotton for ours, but blend for charity quilts that will be washed and washed--and dried in a dryer most likely---and use blankets in those instead of batting so they hold up for years....
No problems with pilling so far as I check the sheets carefully for thread count and quality...
