http://www.marshalldrygoods.com sells 108" wide very reasonably. Every yard of it is actually giving you 3 yards of regular width. |
I haver used muslin on a couple quilts and like it very well. Nice to get it large enough so there are no seams. I will be using it more often since prices of fabrics are going up. I used to use a lot of the Kona solids until the prices went so high.

I like muslin, but a good quality.

Yes, all the time. I like the way it feels...nice and soft!

I'm wondering if anyone uses plain muslin for quilt backing. With the price of fabric going up, I'm looking for less expensive backings. Thanks, ava |

I have just be sure to wash it first, then iron it again. It really can shrink

I have used muslin, printed cotton, flannel and fleece. I choose according to what the recipient may like, what type of quilting I am doing, etc... the sky is the limit when choosing backings :D:D:D
