So about that Minkee mates stuff from Benartex. If it mates
hopefully it will multiply? BG
I'm not too keen on poly but that stuff is so soft.
Picked some cute baby blanket fabric out the other day.
I kept going to boy stuff. Usually that means it will
be a girl baby! Now to just come up with a pattern.
It is generous of the younger women in the family to
have babies so I get the fun and no trouble.
Taria, finishing things up today!

"This fabric is about 60” wide and 100% polyester. Machine wash warm, mild
detergent, delicate cycle, tumble dry low, remove promptly. Do not bleach."

It's that polyester content that loses my interest;

it's a personal non-preference. g

Good luck!

Hi there,

I am new to the group and thought I would post about the Minkie fabric.

It is a great backing. I have been using it for the past month (3 baby
quilts) and it quilts wonderfully. You do not have to wash it (I don't).
But just remember to basteand baste well.

My LQS carries all sorts of colors and it is so soft. Whatever you can get
your hands on, buy, buy, buy!

Lots of luck with it,
