I am thinking of using some cotton flour bags (which I was lucky enough to buy at a very reasonable price) as backing for a scrap quilt I have in mind. The bags are of good quality 100% cotton fabric with some great logos printed on them approx 40x55cm before unpicking and opening out.
My question is regarding the joining of these, would a regular seam be ok or should I use a French seam for strength being that there would be about a dozen needed for the project.
Has anyone done this before or have any other suggestions / bright ideas on how these could come together to make an interesting quilt back?
