    Fairly new to quilting, but a long time sewer, I am working on a quilt for a grandson's wedding. I was persuaded to purchase cotton sateen for the backing (color was perfect, price reasonable), but am having second thoughts since I am not familiar with cotton sateen. Any suggestions? Any special tips?

    Hello and welcome from the UK! Sorry, a newbie myself so cannot give advice but I'm sure someone more knowledgable will be a long soon.

    Welcome from Kansas!

    I've quilted several quilts with sateen as backing. They quilted up beautifully.

    Welcome from neighboring Massachusetts! Can't help you with the backing question though, sorry.
