this is my response too
[QUOTE=sandy l;5348295]I don't wash muslin, in fact don't pre-wash anything, just use Color Catchers in wash. I try to use a low loft batting. Sashing?..depends. I have done it both ways.

You should go here http://www.quiltingboard.com/members...bums16956.html and check out what others have done. You will see that there probably isn't a "best way" but they all turn out wonderfully!

I use muslin as a foundation and it is usually unwashed. Sometimes it is. That is something I just don't worry about. I use so many scraps from customers quilts and I have no idea whether they washed the fabrics or not. I just go wit it! Thanks for the link to the photos of the sting quilts. I got a few more ideas and realized I should post the ones I've already done!
