When you cut out border printed fabric do you line the pattern pieces up with the border instead of using the grain line? I made a coat out of border printed fleece and I used the border as a guide because I wanted it to run along the bottom of the coat and sleeves. Was this the right thing to do? |

Yes you did. that is how you do it. If it was fleece I have found out it does stretch longer. I have not found a trick for this but I am working on it and should have it for the next season. It is like it grows as you wear it.
The more you disaprove, the more fun I am having!
