I found some fabric that kinda goes with a Dresdan that I bought already done.

Do they make this fabric without the sparkles - I really dont like the texture of this fabric.

If not I am open to suggestions for this dresdan.

Thanks cheryl :thumbup:

pic showing fabric with sparkles - doesnt exactly match but would probabably work for sashing

Full dresdan - this shows a butterflies that could be fussycut out of fabric for the middle!!!

I am so sorry you don't like the sparkle in the butterfly fabric 'cause I personally think it is perfect.

I have only seen it with the sparkles- sorry. But I agree the sparkle goives it an extra "pop" for the centers

The sparkles are fun. Could you use a sparkly thread to attach the plates to the fabric to make it seem intentional?

Those colors match nicely. I like them.

Did you use a special template for that butterfly? It looks like
it was made for just that one butterfly.

I myself save plastic lids and cut them into whatever shape I want. Since they have no markings on them they work nicely. I would like to find sets of different sizes, it would make it easier when I'm frustrated and ruin every lid I cut!!

Wow! That fabric you found is PERFECT! I would just go with it sparkles and all because I don't think you'll find anything that matches as well. Good find!
