Tartan ... do you buy your muslin here in Canada? Where?

I couldn't understand it when I read here on the QB that people were using it in their quilts, as any that I have ever seen here is the old-fashioned-almost-impossible-to-iron-out-the-wrinkles" type. A friend in the USA sent me some and I soon understood why they do use it in their quilts. Only thing I did not like in working with it was that it is quite fine, so if working with darks in the same project, they can show thru.
