Sweet! I am thinking of using repurposed bed sheets for quilt backs. Already amassing them for fashion garments. Check this out, ladies . . .Bed Sheet Dresses |. Matter of fact I just left our local thrift store as the spirit lead me there ISO (in search of) a good find. I picked up three sheets and a discarded 100% cotton garment which will be part of my Genesis Scrap Quilt, First Handmade Quilt |.

Now I just rip up old bed sheets from when the kids were small and use them as a foundation, they work great AND I am clearing out my linen closet!
