I pieced that top. I starched all of the fabrics prior to cutting. It was not card stock stiff. So I would say a medium. I used Stay Flo and diluted it 2 parts water to 1 part starch. ( I like to mix up my own solutions) It was a scrap quilt and mixed my starch in a big bowl with a lid , filled the bowl up with scraps and shake ! Once the scraps are saturated I dried them on a small wood clothes dryer overnight, pressed then cut. I used the leftover starch mixture in a spray bottle and when I was pressing the seams open , I lightly sprayed the seams , and pressed.
