Love using muslin as quilt backing! It feels so soft when it gets older. Wish I could find it wide enough so I didn't have to put a seam down the center though.

I love muslin in quilts but be sure to WASH & MACHINE DRY it first. It is notorious for it's shrinkage. Like flannel, it is often a tad thicker and much softer after washing & drying.

Certainly, use muslin for quilt backs. If you don't like the color you can dye it!

Absolutely...use it! The cost of making a quilt anymore is astronomical. I always use muslin...sometimes bleached, sometimes unbleached...not only is it economical I love the look and it eliminates piecing on the back.

I haven't used muslin yet to back a quilt, but I would use it when making my 20's and 30's reproduction quilts. I like the look of a muslin backing.

I use muslin all the time for backng. Here is a hint. Go to Wal Mart.com Type in 108x108 (3 yards) muslin this comes in 3 colors.Cost is $16.64. I use this all the time(great muslin). You can have shipped to your home(cost in shipping) But you can have it shipped to the nearest WM to you at no Shipping cost.

Ditto, although I don't use mulin for backs when I give gifts, just for things I make for myself.

I love to use it. I use it on a lot of quilts especially if I use a lot of off white or white in the quilt top. Gives the vintage look.

I use muslin as a quilt back from time to time and I use it in my piecing too. If it's not real thin, it's quite a good fabric!

I saw some muslin dyed pink a few days ago. It was beautiful.
