Just an up date, I was in a sewing machine shop the other day and they had some 'quilters cotton' in their shop so now I know what it looks and feels like after all this time. Can't believe I have been in fabrics most of my working life and I had never seen it!!!!!! What they had felt so soft and lovely!

In the U.K. we talk about calico all the time - it is what you call muslin in the USA. Our Muslin is much, much thinner and your cheesecloth I think.
