Old blocks to be out into a quilt
I have some lovely Sunbonnet Sue blocks that my grandmother appliquéd on muslin. The appliqué itself is turned edge with buttonhole, and it looks in very good shape. However I am a bit worried about the stability of the muslin which is quite thin. Should I line the blocks with a layer of heavier muslin before putting the blocks together or will they stand up to some use without it? I will be asking them with cornerstones, using a soft batting of wool or cotton, then machine quilting with either radiating lines or a cross hatch with about a 2” spacing.
