I have been playing with the Kona Premium Muslin lately ~ its nice high thread count, and would hold up beautifully ~ I believe its at least 200 ct. and has a nice hand from what I've bought... I got mine at JoAnn's, used my coupon because it doesn't ever seem to go on sale.
I'm in Ohio too ~ so if you don't have room, I can give you extra storage of your overflow goodies haa haa ~ seriously, that is wonderful she gave it to you instead of tossing it out! Enjoy
