Fabric back side
 

Do any of you ever put the wrong side up when piecing scrappies? I do, and like the results. This is random and not too many are close to the others.

Yes, since making many watercolors quilts, I do use the back of the fabric. I also wanted a variety in the shade of a tonal on an orange peel quilt in progress and I reversed some of the fabrics.

:thumbup:Affirmative!

The saying is, you paid for both sides, so you can use them both.

I did that a lot in my Asian Log Cabin quilt that I just posted in pictures yesterday. On the light values, the right side was too dark but the wrong side was perfect!

not only on scrappies, but planned also. i did it here http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...r-t275337.html

Yes, I'm using the back side of fabric for the background in a quilt -- the front side is too bright, the backside is nicely muted. When I have done this in other quilts I've been asked where I bought the fabric! I often shop for fabric by looking at the backside.

I pay for both sides of my fabric and use both sides as needed to achieve my final project.

With scrappiest sometimes I do it on purpose, some times by accident. Either way, I never fret about it.
