Hi,


I am new to patchwork and quilting.

I bought some white Moda quilt backing material (108" wide) online thinking that I could
use it on the front and back of the quilt.

The cotton that arrived looks a bit rough in the sense that it is not smooth like other Moda fabrics and it has little bumps on it. Nothing terrible, it just looks like a cheaper rougher cotton than the cotton
you would get for the front of a quilt.

I was wondering:

Is Moda backing fabric generally a bit rougher/ more raw than the fabric they sell from the front of a quilt?

Would you ever use it for the front or is it better to but other Moda fabric sold for the front of quilts?

Also the name Moda wasn't stamped on the selvedge like their other fabrics. There is no writing on the selvedge.

Do they not stamp their name on their backing fabrics?

I would appreciate your advice.

Many thanks,

Sam.
