JUST VENTING
I'm so mad. How come I can purchase material that's all the same price fabric, but some shrink more than others?? I got a hold of a friend of mine who's going to look in her stash and see if she has some pastels she can donate to the cause. The quilt in question is for her sister, so she was happy to look for me. I just don't think I'm going to have enough material and I'm extremely frustrated.
If I do another FQ quilt, I may purchase 3/8 or 1/2 yard pieces so I can plan for the shrinkage. I'm completely torked at myself because I usually wash and dry by hand and then press to get the shrinking done, but not so much fraying. There's one piece that I won't be able to use much of because the threads were pulled out in the dryer and now the whole print is messed up. There's parts that are regular thickness, but other parts are so thin I can see my thumb on the other side.
I'm just irritated.....thanks for letting me rant and rave. RRRGGGGG.
