I'm thinking...I bet it will come to you as you go along..."jane's Washington Welcome"

Okay, did you see my earlier post about muslin? Just in case you were using it because you are reproducing the real one...muslins were not used in the mid 1800's for quilts. They used cotton...whites and offwhites, but not muslin. Of course, you are welcome to use whatever you want..it's your quilt! And no doubt, will be fabulous with muslin. However, they did NOT use muslin back then!!
