Can you sew clothing from quilting fabric?

Quilting cotton fabric makes great clothes! Why? Designer quilt fabric is usually 100% cotton, designed in small batches in interesting patterns, so you won't find hundreds of other people wearing the same thing you are.It is usually about 42 inches wide, so that it is economical, too.

Just make sure you wash the fabric before you cut out your pattern if it is 100% cotton - it make shrink a tiny bit and the colors may bleed. Many quilt fabric designers and sites carry clothing patterns. The Asian-inspired cottons made by Kona, or the batiks made by Hoffman (among others) look great when made into jackets, skirts or trousers.

For some fun oriental ideas, go to eastwindart.com/cgi-bin/ustorekeeper.pl When you look for a pattern, consider the pattern manufacturer's suggested fabrics. If cotton or broadcloth are among them, then the pattern is suitable for how quilting fabrics drape. Enjoy!

I also would like to know how cloth can be sewed from quilting fabric. Thanks for making the posting.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
