I don't remember the original post and didn't go back to read it, but if it works for you that's all that matters. Not everyone has the same budget for their hobby and it should be about the creation and process not so much the supplies used. I haven't used sheets just because I've heard that the thread count can make them difficult to quilt etc. and I've got enough troubles <VBG> without causing myself more LOL. Look at what the truly heirloom quilts were made from ... whatever was at hand. Please don't stop posting.
