Frequently!
|
The wrong side of fabric is especially helpful when looking to replace fabric in vintage and antique quilts. I have used the wrong side in quilting projects when it is just the right shade.
|
I paid for both sides. I do it most often to get more neutrals.
|
Yes, definitely!
|
It is so ingrained in me to find and use the right side that I study both sides to make sure it is the right side. I learned to make clothing and made those for years. I need to try and get over that because I only make quilts now. Old habits are hard to break.

I don't do it a lot but sometimes I do. I made a lighter colored baby quilt and I had the cutest patterned print for backing but it was brighter primary colors...so I flipped it and it matched perfectly. I also made a gradation quilt and flipped all the colors over and included the backside in the gradation. Worked perfectly and I didn't struggle with color wheel when purchasing all the fabric..
super cute quilt! |
I've used the wrong side of the fabric for the right side on occasion when it was what I needed.

My sister and I have both (at different times) accidentally sewn double layers of some piece to one of another. Now that is hard to explain. I will have to put it down to my age. :)

Cute! And turning the fabric over gives you just the same texture! Using the other side helps increase the "scrap factor" in some of my multi-fabric projects.
