Could you all explain the subject of starching?

Thank you!

Hi Nancy. I am Marta, from Pittsburg, Ks.
I belong to our local Quilt Guild. The subject of starching has come up several times. This is the consensus of opinion on it.
Always use the Sizing, as starch draws bugs to our quilts, and the sizing doesn't. Sizing makes the fabric easier to stitch and gives it a nice, crisp finish.
Good luck with your quilt!
