Supposed to be able to create your own fabric design by the yardage! Seems like a cool concept. Has anyone tried it??

I have never heard of this, but it looks pretty cool! Thanks for sharing the link!

There have been some discussions previously and I believe the quality of the fabric was not what was expected for the price.

Yep! I've tried it. You can see the results here.

I was hoping Cindi would make something with it, but I believe she framed it, lol!

I have used another site for making my own fabrics. It is:

I really like the work they do and have had all of my memory quilts made up of prints they made for me.

I participated in one challenge. It was my first so the learning curve is quite steep, but I did enjoy it.

seams like a neet idea maybe i should scan some off the drawings DH has made and play around with them.

I've ordered from them and the fabric is very thin. Don't know how it would hold up in a quilt. I made a cover for my son's Zoom and lined it with corduroy so I think it will hold up.

I've checked this out awhile back, this is a really nice idea. Me, I can't afford it; but if I save up and have a very special quilt idea/pattern/design I would LOVE to design my very own fabric for it sharet
