Such a nice response from all for this question for me. The class is called "The Chicken Coop", 30" square wall hanging, made with nine-patch blocks with black and white squares, alternating with pieced and appliqued chickens - real easy chickens made out of stash scraps. Add woolen pieces for combs and beaks.
I've emailed the teacher, but no response yet, for clarification of these "shirtings" fabric.
Sounds like I can use the 100% cotton with very small patterns on the white, but anxious for the teacher's explanation, for such an old term. Will let you all know.
