Hello to One and All! I will add to that, if you get stage production muslin. It's used to backgrounds for stage productions, it's thicker It's more along the lines of calico and high quality quilter's cotton. I have a 10 foot wide roll I use for quilt backings. Hugs, Susie Rose Â

Hi Fellow spiders, Just a slight correction on Robin s email;- calico is a sturdy densely woven cotton fabric in England and well suited for covering a lace pillow especially if it is in a plain, darkish colour. Muslin is a softer, thinner and much more open weave which would be totally unsuitable for a pillow cover as it would catch threads and bobbins as well as shed fibres.
