I use the white-white muslin as the background to miniature (3"x5") service star flags, which I sell to raise funds for local veterans programs. People mount them onto car and home windows.
I am making 4- and 9-patch blocks with white/cream muslin alternating with my colored scraps.
Foundations for crazy quilt blocks, string quilt blocks, braid columns and the like.
Backing for doll quilts for my granddaughters
Lining for tote bags

I use them for smaller projects or for piecing. There is a shooting star pattern you can use the muslin as the center square and use little scraps from other projects to make the tips of the shooting star. Really cute!

I use Moda muslin so it is nice for piecing too.
