    I wouldn't put cotton and another fabric in a quilt together because of the shrinkage factor. Over time cotton tends to continue to shrink some, and the other fabrics won't, which will cause a problem.

    You're a lucky girl to have this "problem"!! :-)

    I totally agree. I'm going to love sorting and using this. One of my first projects will be something for my Mom.
