The premium mulsin fabrics are 200 count and much nicer to work with than the cheaper stuff. They wash up nice and don't wrinkle as much as the others. Legacy, Kaufman Kona Muslin, Southern Belle are some of the brands I've used. There is a seller on ebay that has the Southern Belle for about $3.50/yd which isn't bad for a premium muslin. They sell it in different sized lots. I think last time I bought an 8 yd lot. First quality and quick shipping too.
