Some time ago I remember reading in a book either by Claire Shaeffer or Connie Amaden-Crawford that quilting cotton is not appropriate for apparel sewing because it doesn't have enough drape. Does any one have any opinions on this? My Mom has taken to wearing float (patio?) dresses since a visit to Hawaii when she discovered how comfortable they are. I want to stitch her some some for spring and summer wear. Quilting cotton seems to be all there is around here.
