Using a sheet for backing of quilt?
#23
For over 20 years I have used sheets as backing. I love the solid colors and find it easy to match the colors of the quilt. I cannot get wide backing fabric locally. My choice is king size flat sheets.

My mom is a hand quilter and only uses sheets. She has been quilting forever and I have at least 10 of her quilts in my linen closet.
She loves to get sheets at garage sales, discount stores, etc. I do know she is very particular about the needle she used to hand quilt.
I haven't been brave enough to make a quilt large enough to need two pieces of fabric.
