If you use a new sheet wash it a couple of time and don't put fabric softer on it ...........this will get the sizing out of the sheet........................a friend told me once not to use sheet because of the thread count but if that is all you can afford at the time ..........use this and see if you like it .......................on ulitarian quilts I have use old sheets that I wash and it done just find...........but i will say this if you are making a heirloom quilt do as the ladies says, get the best you can..........I have done this both ways and happy with the results ....................hope this helps and congrs on quilt and keep on quilting
