God love 'em! I really hope Allah is wrapped in a lovingly made quilt.

Re: 120" muslin not Muslim

Funny story. I was watching one of these TV-judge shows, and a woman wanted her deposit back from a tailor. She said she'd called him a month before the event and he hadn't finished the Egyptian so she bought a dress elsewhere.

The judge asked, "What do you mean, 'Egyptian'?"

"You know," she said, "the cloth pattern. The Egyptian."

The tailor said, "You mean the muslin?"

"Yeah, yeah," she said, "the Muslim!"

The whole courtroom burst out laughing.

Epilogue: Since her receipt said "Deposit non-rufundable," she lost her case.

https://www.missouriquiltco.com/shop/browse?q=108"%20backing There is 108" backings in prints there. I put 108" backing into the search engine on the site and these came up.

no, she only checked the website. I hoped the store had other 120" fabrics..

Since probably more than 90% of their sales are online orders, I would think they keep the website VERY up to date. Heck, I've looked at an item, got interrupted, went back onto the site an hour later only to find out it was now sold out.

After doing a google search, the only 120" wide backing fabric I could find was all Muslin. Anything else was drapery or furniture fabric.

Re: 120" muslin not Muslim

Most wide backings are 108". The only ones I have seen that come in 120" have been classified as muslin and were white, cream or the natural color. It is a better quality muslin than what most people think of when they hear that term.

Re: 120" muslin not Muslim

that was why I phoned, hoping they had something OTHER than Muslin for 120" backing!

Don't get mad. Did you get an answer? That's what's most important. We were just having a bit of fun.

HaHa, if you are speechless because someone pronounced an "N" as an "M", please for your peace of mind, don't ever call a customer service center in the deep south, or New York, or Boston, they'll drive you nuts!

Re: 120" muslin not Muslim

MO* has an entire shop of extra wide backings.
