Allan,
Had to look at Titian's canvases first before answering you. The Danae that I copied looked like he used a linen with the conventional weave but very heavy/thick individual threads. He also used very fine compact weave linen for his portraits (aside from wood).
Your choice of cloth for your daughter's portrait seems to have worked well and I will try your advice on the spatula thing...makes me think of why it didn't occur to me earlier.
