    has anyone ever used white eyelet fabric in a quilt? Pros or cons? It is ""allowed" by quilt police? LOL

    I think it might be nice layered with the color of your choice.

    No quilt police here. It could be very pretty. Go for it.

    That's a neat idea. I also think it could be very pretty.

    i made a quilt in 92 out of eyelet. A friend wanted an eyelet spread for her daughter, but after pricing them she asked me to make one. It really turned out nice.

    I've been thinking about overlaying parts of a block with lace and ribbon, as soon as I get to it! Let's try out the ideas and find out what happens!

    do you mean putting a piece of colored fabric under it to show thru the eyelet holes?

    You can let out a big sigh of relief---there are no quilt police around here. We're here to help and share with each other.
