I abhor making clothing from quilting fabric for one reason and one reason ONLY.
Because 100% cotton wrinkles HORRIBLY and I hate ironing!
I always head to the fashion fabrics section and choose fabrics that wash well and don't wrinkle badly. Crepe is one of my favorites. But fashion fabrics don't have as many fun prints as the quilt cottons do. It's a trade-off. I use my embroidery machine to embellish my little girl's dresses with fun things!
