Anybody else use sheets for the back of their quilts? I buy the 200 thread count mainstays from Walmart, less than $3.00 for twin size. Also if I am going to need a lot of one color. Somewhere I read not to but I find they work great for me. My mom always used sheets in her sewing projects.

I've done the same when in a pinch.
Sometimes, the color I want for a backing isn't available, so I just go to Walmart or sometimes Macy's (when sheets are on sale) and buy a couple of those. I usually buy 2 or 3 for a backup just in case.

Karen,
Have you tried Ikea for your fleece throws, they are lovely and fine and soooo cheap, Ikea opened a store near Malaga back end of last year, and I picked up a couple of their baby fleeces, so soft!!
