Funny but do you think it would really make any diffrence if the sheets were not used, after all you wash the quilts anyway! and they will sure Smell nice! and be so soft!
PS: I may try a very sm quilt this way to see what happens.

I think that I love the scrappy quilts best. Yours is just great! Kind of epiotomizes what quilting is all about...use what you have to make something beautiful.

WOW I can see why this is your favorite! The black makes it look like it's beveled diamonds!

Not as dumb as my question: What do you do with the dryer sheets?? I love your quilt. I want to make a scrappy or string quilt, but don't understand what you do with the dryer sheets. (Bear with me, please!)
