Re: Fabric Requirements 08 Dec 2011 19:39 #72030

Hi, I posted a couple of days ago but haven't heard back yet. Has anyone checked the yardage for this quilt, It seems a lot of fabric for one quilt, I added it up to about 24 yards.
I would like to start getting the fabric but not sure how much. Look forward to hearing from someone soon.

It's more economical by the yard: http://www.rickytims.com/online-store?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=64&category_id=26

The 8-1/2" x 11" pre-cut sheets are $9.98: http://www.rickytims.com/online-store?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=65&category_id=26


MY BAD!! I just did the math, and the price (pre-cut vs yardage) is basically the same. :oops:

Hi, Just downloaded the fabric requirements and boy there is a lot of material, about 24 meters. This seems a lot for one quilt. Or am I adding up wrong. There was similiar amounts for the brown one. Does anyone know if this is correct. Maree.

Hi all -

I just printed the colorless pattern and got good results by clicking on "Properties" in the print dialog, then going to the "Color" tab. I set the brightness slider to its darkest level and I got a reasonable printout. I can see all of the lines, but they won't get in the way of the colored pencils. This method might be printer-specific but it might help to look for something similar.

I'm wondering if regular paper piecing paper can be used instead? I'm a frugal quilter and like to use what I already have so I'm not really keen on getting new stuff unless I absolutely have to. My grandmother taught me well all those years ago....

Hi Margo,

Justin ordered all of the stable stuff that the Embroidery Store had in stock prior to our Black Friday sale. We sold out.

We know there is nothing at the present time. Justin plans on calling them tomorrow to make sure we have a good supply as soon as they can provide it.

Thanks

Ricky

I just heard from Bob, and they are working on the issue to make the PDF of the blank design darker. I'll keep you posted here.
