I buy lots and lots of muslin of different weights. Thin is for strip quilts and crazy quilt blocks, heavy is for quilt backs. I usually buy muslin at JoAnn when there is a sale or I have a coupon. I like muslin because the quilting shows. froggyintexas

What are your thoughts on using muslin? Or does anyone know where I can get better muslin?
