Pretty fabric
I went to Joann’s Fabric Saturday afternoon and found some really pretty striped fabric that was on sale for $3.00 a yard. I simply fell in love with it and bought the entire bolt. I know that it would make a gorgeous dress. The issue I am having now is decidind whether to acutally follow pattern directions and cut on the grain or against the grain. If I use the pattern the way it is intended, then the stripes will be horizontal, and I would prefer the stripes to be vertical. You know, weight issues!
I just don’t know if there is any repurcussions about fabric stability if I cut against the grain. So I guess I’ll have to be doing some research on that subject before I actually cut into it! If you have any advice on the subject, feel free to share!
