A few weeks ago I bought M'Liss fabric at Hancock's for making aprons for Christmas gifts. Today I went to cut out one and was very disappointed in the fabric. It's from the Hanging Gardens collection, Small Flowers on Cotton Fabric. It looks like it is defective, or misdyed. I considered taking it back but thought I'd better check online first. Well, I enlarged the picture and sure enough, it's supposed to look that way but to me it doesn't look right. The apron I was going to make is McCalls 6132, the one with an appliqued coffee cup on the bib. Now I'm not sure I will use it. It just looks defective to me and I'm thinking my GD will think the same. Opinions?

Is it like the outlines and the dye are "off" when they printed? I'd think they would take it back...

I'm sorry; I don't have the ability to post a picture, but you may go to HancockFabrics.com, then search for M'Liss fabrics, Hanging Gardens, it's the "Small Flowers on Cotton Fabric." Thanks!!!!
