I have backed several quilts with minkee fabric. My latest quilt---which has had one problem after another--the minkee is pulling through the quilt top. The back is black and the front it white!
I have read online that one quilter used a smaller needle. I am going to try that tomorrow. I hope it helps.
Has anyone experienced this?

I have used minky, but not that striking of a color difference. I used grey minky with blue flannel and then red minky back on multicolor front.. I never noticed the minky coming to the front. Are you using batting? I did use batting....sorry I don't have any suggestions

I just had this happen. Rust minky on the back , white on the front. I always use minky on my baby quilts but I've never used white on the front. I suspect it has happened in the past but was noticeable due to less contrast of the colors. I'm going to get a stiff tooth brush and see if I can pull the threads back into place from the backside. Not happy with this quilt.
