Did you use used fabric softener sheets or used bed sheets? I wasn't quite sure. Either way it's lovely.

Hi Gaga...I used used FABRIC SHEETS. I tried unused one time only, and they are very greasy and cause grease on the fabric and iron. But the used are perfect. I've actually completed several of these. Thanks for asking.

I also do machine applique or hand applique on them to add to my quilts.
