? Alining print fabric to match at seam?
#11
That is such pretty fabric. I've never tried to match them up before. I would do a strip of a solid in there before I would attempt that. There might be an easier way that what I have going on in my head, but I just don't like ripping stitches. I wish you the best of luck.

Your backing fabric (I think that's what you said) is very, very pretty. I love when the backing fabric is pretty. I can understand why you want it to match up. It's large floral flowers. It would look so nice to get them to match up. You've gotten some great advice. I like the glue advice. That's what I would try because you can always change it if you goof up a bit.

I like to match the pattern, also - even on the backings.
However, if there isn't enough fabric available to do so, then I will resort to putting strips between the pieces - so that then the non-match won't bother me.
