I use the white-white muslin as the background to miniature (3"x5") service star flags, which I sell to raise funds for local veterans programs. People mount them onto car and home windows.

I am making 4- and 9-patch blocks with white/cream muslin alternating with my colored scraps.

Foundations for crazy quilt blocks, string quilt blocks, braid columns and the like.

Backing for doll quilts for my granddaughters

Lining for tote bags

I use them for smaller projects or for piecing. There is a shooting star pattern you can use the muslin as the center square and use little scraps from other projects to make the tips of the shooting star. Really cute!

I use Moda muslin so it is nice for piecing too.

I had a bunch of light brown and used it for the foundation of my sunflower wall hanging.

I use mine as the foundation for strip pieced blocks. Pieces that won't cut at least a 6" square, I toss out.

Aaaahhhh! Marcia, throwing out??? Ask the local vet if anyone makes dog beds. I save all my really small scraps, trimmings, tiny batting pieces etc for a lady who makes dog beds for the local vet. He sells them and the money goes towards training a guide dog or companion dog. So far they have paid for 18 dogs to be trained. If not that I bet the local school or kindergarten would gladly take them of your hands.

Do you know what size the dog beds are?

I like off white and white. I use muslin a lot.

"birthing a quilt" is a term for layering batting, backing right side up, and top (right side down), them sewing around the edges leaving a space open, for turning right side out before quilting. No binding needed.
