I read somewhere about a product that could be used to strengthen thin material. I believe it was some sort of a backing.
Anybody know what I'm talking about? |
There are all sorts of fusible and sew-in interfacings, depending on what you have and how much reinforcing it needs. Some people use muslin as a lining, too. Just realize that too-thin fabric won't hold up as well as quilt-weight cottons.

I've used interfacing in me sewing but not in my quilting. Maybe I'm missing something.

Yes, quilters do use a thin iron on interfacing to stabilize fabrics for quilting. Most fabrics stores carry this :D:D:D
