I have recently shared with everyone my difficulty with working with flannel. Wow. Lesson learned! so snuggly, but so stretchy and weird!
I am going to start on my diamond quilt soon and I was feeling really good about it, but then a friend mentioned last night that sometimes with the diamond pattern people have trouble with the grain of the fabric stretching and being strange.
I was planning on using some cotton batik and hand dye for the diamonds and then some green hand dye for the piecing.
Is there any particular material you all would recommend as being most easy to work with, or a brand that is "worth it" to stick with for the whole thing?
Since it will be a very big quilt....I dont want to spend a lot of money and find I have fabric that is not up to the job!!!!!
Thanks!!!
