Osnaburg versus muslin fabric?
Yesterday, I attended the Road to California quilt show and stumbled upon a vendor who made rag quilts using Osnaburg fabric as an additional layer for ragging. It felt and looked like muslin to me and ragged very well.
Do you think unbleached muslin that frays easy would work just as well?
BTW, the show was fabulous! Spent way to much but have oodles of fabric, patterns, and templates. Plus exercise to last me a month. LOL ....the exercise that is...

I know that Hancock Fabrics sells the Osnaburg and it is in the muslin section. It is really nice, thicker than any of the other muslin they sell. It has almost a linen look to it. It is manufactured by Roc-Lon.
