It hadn’t occurred to me to do 1/4 size mockups - d’oh! Of course! A way to play around without using so much fabric - as yes trying to understand what you get in the end does my head in. Thanks for the reminder re this fab technique - I’ll be having a play with a massive stack of old pillowcases that have been hiding in the linen cupboard this weekend!

That makes trying this easier. However, stay tuned for what I learned from my experiments because I don't think you always have to use quite so much fabric...Laurianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16602295642057814667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553172421381359137.post-29070673926112445672020-04-30T23:15:18.389+02:002020-04-30T23:15:18.389+02:00Fascinating!

I keep meaning to do experiments, but you need quite a lot of available fabric, something I don't have. Claire Cooperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15923437480914463238noreply@blogger.com
