I don't own much muslin. I use to make rag dolls so I bought yards for that and then coffee stained it. But besides that, I don't have any. I think, after reading this thread, that I will buy some Moda wide back muslin. Glad I read this thread!!!

I just finished a bolt of extra wide muslin (probably 90-108 inches) and I got it a JoAnn's with a coupon. I used it for my Cathedral Windows and it worked up very nicely. I can't remember exactly, but I think it was very inexpensive, $3.00-$4.00 a yard. Now all I have to do is make the windows--been working on it off and on for 5 years. lol

I get mine from JoAnn's by the bolt when they have it on sale or use my discount coupon.

I buy Moda muslin by the bolt at hancocks of paducah.com. If you buy 15 yards (full bolt) you get a nice discount. I think if you signupnfor their emails you may get a code for free shipping on your order. I always wait for their frequent free shipping offers. I just ordered a bolt of Kona black. Saved $10 with free shipping.

Haven't bought muslin in a long time, but used to buy Roc-lon brand....if I am remembering right it was #403...they have many different types.

I recently ordered some Moda muslin from Hancock's of Paducah. It was 120" wide and on sale for less than $8 per yd., the more yards you bought, the lower the price per yd. Not bad when you consider that one yard at 120" wide is equal to 3 yds. of regular width muslin.

Thank you all for your input. I have been searching the internet off and on all day. Tomorrow I am going to have to make a decision.

I agree that the Roc-Lon is good and available at Joann's. My favorite is LEGACY brand, also available at Joann's. Although it is around $12/yd., it is 108" wide as I remember and just wonderful! Of course, purchase with a 40% or 50% off coupon. :)

I buy either Moda muslin or Southern Belle, which is more tightly woven, almost like batik fabric, with no slubs. It's terrific for applique. I purchase them at Caroline's Cottage Cottons in Rome City, IN.
