What to do with this?
« on: September 20, 2017, 18:11:47 PM »
Whilst at Fabworks today I couldn't resist this fabric, but no idea what to do with it. It is a medium weight poplin and it looks like a nightmare to try and match the pattern, which runs at a 45 degree angle.
Any ideas anyone?
It's not easy being this perfekt

Wow. That,s very busy!   Sundress?   I think something simple without too much shaping.  Any seaming I think I might try a lapped seam.  Or at least tacking from the front. That way you could make sure it matched properly.

It looks like a quilt to me, bit of batting, backing and binding. Straight line quilting. Job done.  ;)
