That's all I ever use because I do quilt as you go and with all the piecing of the back as I go, muslin for me, is the simplest. It also makes for nice soft, comfy quilts and my family loves them. The beautiful backings definitely do add to the beauty of the quilts but the muslin works fine for me and no one has ever complained about it.
