Fabric or Design first?
Thursday, April 17th, 2008Do you find your fabric first and design around it or design a quilt and go find the fabric to fit? I find that I do it both ways. Usually if I start with a design first I adapt the design a bit to fit the fabric I chose. While I admire those who are free enough to just start in without a complete plan in place, It is rare for me to design as I go, usually I have to have finalized concept down before starting. Most of my changes are done on the computer before starting to actually stitch and cut the fabric.
