I can print full-scale paper copies of fabrics to cut and play around with when I'm in the designing stages and I don't have to cut into the fabrics I love until I'm more sure how I want to proceed.
To Late for me to do that! i would be at it for months and months! but an excellent idea for just beginning!
i have carried scrap pieces that i am looking for companion fabrics to go with it, in an old plastic baseball card holder, it folds up and tucks in my purse.
