I thought this fabric would be cool made up into a drunkard's path quilt. It makes me drunk just looking at it. I have two different color. What do you think?

I had to come back and clarify that I plan to pair these fabrics up with a solid. Probably a blue on one and a brown on the other. Now, what do you think?

Love the fabrics - don't think I'd like it for a Drunkard's Path, though.

Should be great !! I love blue and brown together!

I was thinking this as well

I say booze it up!

I think it would be cool, but I would choose one and pair it with a solid maybe burnt orange? Or an orangy batik?

make a couple of blocks for it and see how you like it.

I think it would look neat if you paired the white with brown stripes to a dark brown and paired the other one to a tan brown. Lay it next to them and see how it look. I think if you just use these to fabrics its going to make people dizzy to look at it. But I do think the fabric would make a great effect.

Putting them together will probably not give you the contrast the DP suggests. I'd go with either and a solid.

Oh! I guess I wasn't clear. I meant to pair them up with a solid color and make two separate quilts!

Oh - PERFECT!

This is the first blue and brown that I like together. It will be good.

I am doing a dark, dark blue and bright orange for my GS and wife in the Drunkards path pattern. Sort of Asian fabrics and they are Japanese and Cambodian so it is their choice. I only have a couple of blocks done but I like it.

If I can take a photo of a block I will post it.

Same here.

Likewise. I like the fabric, but cut up small enough for DP, I don't think I would care for it myself. JMHO The design would be too disrupted.

Yes, this!

:thumbup:

Oh yes! Go for it.

Personally, I think you're going to totally loose both the impact of the fabric AND the impact of the DP block...but I do like the fabric. Make up a 16 patch and see what you think before committing to a whole quilt, let alone two of them.

maybe use in the border but not in the block
will distract from the block
my opinion :-D

Suggestion ... audition it.

cut drunkard path holes in sheets of paper or cloth in the contrast color you plan to use, lay it on the fabric. Or cut a few pieces.

It sounds like a good idea, but IMHO, you are going to lose the impact of both the drunkard's path pieces AND your wavy fabric.

(cool if I'm wrong, tho)

Love them!!!

love those fabrics

Id love it...after all dizziness goes with drunkardness doesn't it?...lol

if you add solids, i wouldn't use blue. i like the fabrics though.

I am drunk looking. It should work.

I'd love to see the finished quilt.

I love both pieces of fabric. I would use a lighter brown and a medium blue solids. I am with you, I feel like I am drunk when looking at fabric. Jeanniebelle

Fabulous darling! Can't wait to see it.

well you got me moving. :?

well you got me moving. :?

not a good idea.........rather send them to me! :lol: :lol:

dont know about DP but please let me know where you got that fabric from.
Granny

that would be my suggestion also, make up a sample

This is what I was thinking as well. Good suggestion to do a sample always before cutting the whole fabric.

I don't think you need to do anything with those fabs -I feel drunk scrolling slowly past them. They made me feel dizzy

Laughing because Stitchit123 has a good point! :)

OOPS!

Audition them first..let us look again!

Can't visualize it but that fabric would make me to dizzy to work on it.

WOW I see how that would make you drunk just looking at it. I think that if you like it for a drunkard's path then you need to make one. In my opion I don't think that I could sew with this one. LOL LOL Love to see what it looks like when you are done with it.

Love the fabric, but I agree with bebe.

Love the fabrics! Where did you find them? I would like to use them to make a quilt for baby boy!
