  1. Just put "red snappers" in the search block and you will see a lot of opinions, just be sure to scroll through for what you are looking for.  The search will bring up all things red.  I love my red snappers, I would never go without them. 

  2. Personally I would leave the starch in the shirts.   I starch all my quilting fabric.  When piecing the fabric holds its shape better, less shrinkage, etc.  As far as becoming a wrinkled mess when the quilt is washed, it depends on many factors?  What was the shirts made out of, cotton, polyester, silk, etc?  What type of batting are you planning on using?  Are you quilting it dense or light, this will probably be the main factor in how much it wrinkles.    If the batting is made out of the same type of fabrics, you should be able to wash the quilt like you would the shirts.  It's a quilt so after washing it should have texture.  I doubt you want it to look like a heavily  starched shirt.  You would want it to be cuddly?  Just my thoughts.

     

  3. Hummm, tough one, they carry a lot of brands.  Hobbs Heirloom,  Warm and Natural,  Pellon and a lot of off brands.  Try going to JoAnn's website and search batting, you might recognize it there.  When buying batting check the loft, some of it is for hand quilting.   Most of the yardage batting is also carried in the packages.  Happy shopping!

  4. Go to the APQS website and click on "shop".  Go to parts or just do a search.  Here is the URL https://shop.apqs.com/pc_combined_results.asp?search_prod=(searchlike~p.sku~light|Or|searchlike~ p.nm~light|Or|searchlike~ p.ds~light|Or|searchlike~ p.search_terms~light|Or|searchlike~ p.child_rollup_search_terms~light)|And|(searchlike~p.sku~bulb|Or|searchlike~ p.nm~bulb|Or|searchlike~ p.ds~bulb|Or|searchlike~ p.search_terms~bulb|Or|searchlike~ p.child_rollup_search_terms~bulb)&search_keyword=light%20bulb
