Bed sheet
I was at Goodwill today looking for something and while passing the bedding etc. department, something caught my eye. It was a flat sheet with a lovely small rose print on it. I looked at the label and it was 50% cotton and 50% polyester. Now I only buy cotton fabric for my quilts, but I couldn't resist the adorable pattern. Looking at it good, I would say it is a bit thinner than most cottons. I would hate to put it on the back of a quilt that had so much time and money invested in , only to not have it last.
Have any of you used a 50/50 sheet for the backing, and if so, what was your experience? If I were to use it, I would probably keep it for a quilt I'm keeping as to not take a chance with it as a gift.
What's your feeling on the subject.
