    I'm making a shower curtain out of homespun and have cut about half the squares I need with the rag die on my BSPro.

    I got to thinking, should I put W/N between the blocks as you would for a quilt or leave it just with the 2 pieces of homespun?

    I'm thinking just the 2 pieces of homespun, but not really sure as I've not done it this way before. Always have added the w/n inbetween, but that's been for a quilt.

    What are your thoughts on this? Should I or shouldn't I?

    I don't think I would put in the batting. It might absorb a lot of steam.

    No W/N. Too heavy and will hold moisture. Are you backing it with vinyl or will that be a separate curtain?

    I never thought of it that way, only of the weight of it.

    Ok, batting is out then! It's just going to be the "pretty" curtain, the vinyl curtain will be behind it.
