    Does everyone use the adhesive spray for this? I am not using it! Maybe that is my problem...I think my material is shifting! HMMMMMM!

    Here is my attempt at a patchwork jacket. It is ALOT of work, but fun! Next time I will buy really expensive cotton, mine seemed to fray ALOT! Thanks for the tute! I Love this Site!

    I think it looks like I emptied the rag box on it, lol! Funny, I bought cheap fabric, hoping it would fray like it's supposed to in the washer, only one color did! I spent hours with a seam ripper trying to get the fabric to fray outside the seams.

    Not to worry, mine "threads" a bit everytime I wear it. :)

    That's the other thing. I usually run "hot" so I rarely wear it.
