Ladies, I'm about to start my first quilt. I'm going to make the Carpenter's Star block and construct an 88" x 88" quilt.

I need an A and B and a background with the freedom to choose a different or use one of the same for my binding.

Now I've bought some lovely 100% cotton and have found a lovely contrasting fabric in my stash which I strongly think is a poly cotton mix (it forms a light plastic type edge after burning a small section - a tip I got from favourite lady, Eleanor Burns)

Will I or am I likely to run into any trouble combining a 100% cotton with a blend?

All fabrics pre washed prior to cutting and piecing.

Help always appreciated. Who knows, one day I maybe able to help others on this forum (but not for a while I suspect). :)
