I've heard quilt tops referred to here as flimsies...but then I've not spent much time talking with anyone about quilting except here!
|
that's a new one on me.
|
I never heard the term "spiders". What an idiot I would be if it weren't for this board!!!!
|
Cool. I Never know what I'm going to learn here. Thanks

I'm an Aussie and I have never heard anyone call it that. We call it a quilt top. Must admit we say wadding but also say batting.
|
I've always used it to refer to fabric that's thin and loosely woven, not suitable for quilts. I've never heard of the quilt top being called flimsy.
|
This is just to wild! My grandmother used to call her nightgown a flimsy!
|
instead of just scraps-or spiders-now I use leaders/enders and have a whole basketful of twoseys now to be joined into fourseys for a scrap quilt down the road.....thanks to quiltsville.....
