There is a time when I intentionally use the wrong side of fabric. When I make quilt labels, I like to use a scrap of fabric from the quilt just completed. But, many times, the fabric is too busy to be used as a label. I found that using the WRONG side of the fabric for the label works really well. The "faded" image from the right side comes through like a water mark on fancy stationary. The quilt label stays in character with the quilt, and the information is easier to read.

I use a backlight all the time when I’m using a tone on tone light colored fabric! It really is a game changer!😊

I always just figure if I can't tell the difference, and I'm looking for it, then nobody else probably can either, lol. Love the idea for using a black light. I already have one from when I was cleaning my treadle machine.

If you pull the fabric on the bias it always folds to the right side.

Will you be doing a separate video on this subject for solids & batiks? It can be tough to figure out when I'm working with scraps. Much easier when it's a larger piece. Great tip about the pin holes - that was new to me. Thanks! 🧵

At the beginning of the video I did talk about solids and batiks. There's really not a lot of additional information I could offer. For the most part, they look similar if not identical on the front and back. Thanks for watching!

Great info, thank you!!! QUESTION- so generally speaking, are all/most fabrics put onto the bolt w/right sides together? ❤️😀
@joyfulandmerryquilting
Ай бұрын
I believe most fabrics are put onto the bolt with the wrong sides together so you can see what you're buying. However, there's always an occasion where someone may use the wrong side of the fabric as their right side for a particular project. For the most part, when looking at a bolt of fabric in the store, the right side would be on the outside and the wrong sides are facing each other, hidden on the inside. Thanks for watching!

I have intentionally used the wrong side of fabric on some quilt tops because I liked the effect better. Also, for some of the fabrics you've shown, if you have to look that hard to determine right vs wrong side, the average person will probably never notice. Interesting video, though. I always learn something.

I also intentionally use the wrong side of the fabric. Sometimes, the right side is too bright for the design that I want.
@joyfulandmerryquilting

You are certainly welcome to use the wrong side or the right side of your fabric - I know many quilters who take advantage of both sides depending on their project. The purpose of my video was to help others identify the right side of a fabric where sides are difficult to distinguish by simply looking at it. I hope it was helpful to you.

Thank you for your feedback, Johanne! I understand that everyone looks for different things in a video. While you found the first part a bit slow, others might find the background and explanations quite helpful, especially if they're new to quilting. That's why I included that content. Every minute is crafted to help viewers at different skill levels. I appreciate you watching and sharing your thoughts!

@@joyfulandmerryquilting I appreciate your reply and openness. I’m always grateful, when I’m in a hurry, to get that starts at info from other viewers. Everyone is free to watch all of it, of course but if your mid project and hunting around for an answer to a problem you’ll find it later in the video.❤️
