as some of you know I have a like a bubble gum pink painted master bath ( as I get that and the master bed room painted in a soft lavender)
Question about the bath.
I want to do some embroider work and put in there and maybe make a small quilt to hang
I had hubby and his brother put up an anitque iron shelves that is white; hubby took all the rust and stuff off and repainted it .
and I have an antique wooden shelve about the tolite ( it is small but not to small ) i can hang things on all 3
so, I have this really nice muslin i brought
I want to do the center square of what i have in mind in embroidery ;
maybe with flowers , birds and butterflies
do You all think the muslin will be okay as a center area to do the embroidery on? hugs sheila

I have never had any luck with tea or coffee staining.
I sometimes see the material that looks like tea staining in our only quilt shop( which I haven't been to in ages)
but it is really high .
thanks Nancy, hugs sheila

I've used muslin for embroidering many times. You should not have any problems. Good luck. Post your results so we can congratulate you!
