Ours seems to have stopped carrying it and I really loved it. Does anyone know if Kona has stopped making Muslin? I was buying sev diff. widths by the bolt and could use some more of the Bleached. Orrrr is it going by a diff. name. I asked a young Sales Clerk in the Store and she had no idea as she was new & I was in a hurry for an appt. Thanks for any info you can give.

Mine stopped carring it also. The LQS carries it now and if you google it you can get it online. Also, if you have a Hobby Lobby they carry it.

I love the Kaufman Kona Muslin! My local Joann's sometimes has the 90", I never see the 45" anymore. It seems to vary by store though. When visiting my sister up north they had both. Have you seen the Legacy 200 ct muslin? It's very nice. With a 40-50% coupon it wouldn't be to bad. I'd be willing to try it as a substitute for the Kona.

I recently bought some Bella 200 ct muslin from Sue's Sew EZ Designs. The price is great and the quality was pretty nice. Great service too - I buy my Aurifil threads there all the time.

I think mine is replacing it with Legacy. Every time I go in there's a little less Kona and a little more Legacy.

The Legacy is nice stuff. I've got it on the back of my WIP and it's incredibly crisp and smooth.

My Joanns doesn't carry any Kono they replaced it with something like it but it seems thinner.

I buy most of my Kona fabric at a quilt shop, and get most of my other fabric at connecting threads

Thanks for the replies. I appreciate it. I have seen the Legacy but not really paid any attention to it. Guess I need to check it out.
