Since this is the first time I've tried an attachment on this site, I may have trouble! I guess I'll know when I get the e-mail.

I love muslin! I also love Aunt Grace fabric and that goes really well with the muslin. I've always wanted to do a cathedral wondow quilt and that will be muslin also. I have seen some really good quality, high thread count, bleached and unbleached.

The only problem I have with muslin is that there are so many kinds, bleached, unbleached, tea-dyed, etc. I had trouble deciding which one to use. I guess it is up to the quilter to decide, but it always made me hesitate to use any unless the pattern called for it...and then told you which one to use!

I love to use unbleached muslin as background fabric when I make a quilt with reproduction fabrics. I think it looks more authentic. Also, I use bleached muslin for fabric dying. I always prewash and have had no problems with it.
