Big Hugs, Echo! (((HUGS))) I learned a lot from the thread you started. I kind of skip over posts that are snippy or defensive. I had heard of people using sheets for backing but had not thought to try it myself. Now I know why some like to use them and some don't. I always like to pick each fabric (including backing) for my quilts, but I like to make patch quilts and string quilts and will consider using sheets to back those... So, here's one who learned a lot from the thread....

Don't stop posting. If you haven't figured it out, in all the posts I read, half the people think one way and half the people think another. That goes for quilting suggestions, to block suggestions, border suggestion. Everyone thinks there opinions is the correct way to go.

hugs, echobluff! I had read the first part of the other thread. It was an interesting discussion & covered several points to think about. I'm glad you started that thread.
I just went & read the whole thing. Comments may have got just a tad too teechish, but it did not look to me like you got chewed up too bad.
;) I hope you stay on & keep posting. I'm sensitive myself, so I do understand!
Everyone's opinion is worth something. The various points of view & experiences of each of us brings value to the DB.

So sorry that you had a negative experience on the board ... it is the exception rather than the rule.

Please don't take it personally, I didn't it as criticizing.

Don't take it personally! Everyone has their opinions and some may seem to be critical but probably don't mean to be and those that do mean to be can be ignored. There are many, many kind and wonderful ladies and men on this board, give them all another chance. They are all so very helpful! You will really love it here!

I just read it as 'your opinion' and there is nothing wrong with that. I never thought of using sheets and I don't know if I will. But I definitively do not like people who critisize you ( and in a rude way) because you wrote how you think about it.
As far as I know we all have a right to make up our own minds and I saw nowhere that you put others down.
Just keep posting please, don't let your fun be spoiled by a few.
