Press cloth for interfacing?

[joeychen]

Hey sewing ladies, I have a question about interfacing. I'm making a t-shirt quilt for my sis, have cut out all the squares, and am now ready to iron on interfacing to them.

The interfacing instructions refer to using a press cloth - what is that exactly?
Is that something I should go out and buy, or can I use something else at home (towel, dishtowel?)
thanks!

I think a plain white dish towel should be fine, or a piece of muslin. It's just so the iron doesn't have direct contact with your fabric.
