Default Embroidery Stablizer for Foundation

When I decided to use my blue 1 1/2" stings for a quilt, I thought using muslin for a foundation was the way to go. It's only a 8" block with 1 1/2" sashings and corner stones making a 5x6 row quilt. When putting this thing together, it's really going to be heavy when the batting/backing is added. It got me to thinking...has anyone used a water soluble embroidery stabilizer as their foundation? Once washed it would dissolve away. Thinking about trying some for a baby quilt. If you have done this can you advise me of the pro's and con's before I order some from Amazon and waste my money and time.
I know some use dryer sheets, and if I were making another string quilt for myself it would be o.k., just not for a baby quilt.
