The fabric is beautiful quality, but the pattern isn't printed on-grain. When I folded it selvage to selvage and used pins to match the horizontal stripes on both layers, you can see how the pink stripe is clearly tilted. I'm positive the fold is on grain because I undid my pins and tried again carefully matching the selvages to make sure. I'm making pants and not pattern-matching vertically so it's not too big of a deal for me this time, but it is disappointing to see, especially in such a geometric print.
This fabric is more beautiful in person than online! I was stunned when I opened the package. Yes, I'm more than satisfied. I haven't decided what I'm doing with it yet, other than admire it!
A summery dress - brought to life by this cotton fabric. It's lightweight and keeps me cool in the New Jersey hot humid summer. I am thrilled to have found a nice print like this without Lycra. ( Lycra adds so much weight and density to cotton). The white ground of this print keeps me cool, enhances my moderate tan and accessories well.
I got the urge to recreate a pair of shorts from my childhood and this is about as close as I could get :) It has 30% stretch, so the shorts do loosen up some after a day of wear. Overall I'd say good purchase!
It is absolutely gorgeous! Personally, I think the "beige" background is more of a soft green, which I was very pleasantly surprised by, since the reason I hadn't bought it before was that I'm not such a fan of prints on white backgrounds. It's also wonderfully soft, and solid enough to not need a lining for a top, but for a bottom, you would probably either want to do two layers, or get a lining.
I ordered the Valentine Red. It's a bit brighter and pinker than what I needed for the project I'm working on but that's on me for not getting a swatch first. I'll use it for something else. Overall decent quality
I love the fabric and the print. But there is a problem with how it was printed. There is a rib of densely woven area above the selvage. The print was laid down with the print on that dense area on one selvage and way too low on the other, leaving a huge white area on the other. This makes a narrower amount of fabric usable.

I thought it was kind of washed out when I saw it in person. Not excited.

I'm glad I brought a swatch. It's gorgeous, but it is nothing like what I expected from the pictures.

Think I'm looking for a blend though

This trim is even more stunning in person. It definitely was the star of the dress I made!
